Hi guys! Not sure how many of you remember me, but to those who do, I've missed you too! :D
So anyway, next year I'm off to Melbourne uni, and although I want to do a Bachelor of Science, I'm unsure what to major in.
Options:
Agricultural Science
Animal Health and Disease
Atmosphere and Ocean Sciences
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
Bioengineering systems
Biotechnology
Cell and Developmental Biology
Chemical Systems
Chemistry
Civil Systems
Computer Science
Animal Science & Management
Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Electrical Systems
Environmental Science
Food Science
Genetics
Geography
Geology
Geomatics
Human Structure and Function
Marine Biology
Mathematical Physics
Mathematics and Statistics
Mechanical Systems
Microbiology, Infection and Immunology
Neuroscience
Pathology
Pharmacology
Physics
Physiology
Plant Science
Psychology
Science Informatics
Software Systems
Zoology

I don't really care for Chemistry or biology, so I'm thinking either Mathematics & statistics, mathematical physics, or physics.
Opinions on which one of these is going to be future proof (though at this point, with the science science shortage many of these majors seem future proof).
K thanks! If anybody here goes to melb uni or lives in melb then tell me cuz i have lots of questions !

ah you have come to the right place, we on rtsanc get to decide a persons future on daily basis. So I hereby announce you will do Agricultural Science. And not because it's the first one on your list, but for mysterious reasons we cannot tell to guarantee your safety.

I see that the Uni doesn't offer the option of Rocket surgery, I'd look elsewhere if I where you.

It's kind of hard for a bunch of people over the internet to help you decide what you're interested in. Just pick whatever seems the most interesting and try it out. You can always change major as well. It's not like you're locked in for life when you pick your first set of courses on day one.

You obviously like science so that's a good start, now just which is your favorite? Biological, Physical, Social, Mathematical, etc. I think majoring in genetics would be good for job opportunities and it's just plain weird and interesting.

Nanotechnology. It's the future of science. And yes, some places do have it.

Pick something you can enjoy and for which your Bachelor of science is the 'top' in. For example the "Microbiology, Infection and Immunology" you are sort of a wannabe doctor, if you want to do research in that area, become a doctor instead! :flowers:
