How do you get a job in science? 

If you’d like to study science, there are a few things to consider, the majority of jobs in the scientific field will require higher education. There are a few routes you can take, though much of it requires a university degree. One of the most common pathways is to complete a bachelor degree in science (three years full time), which gives you a full range of all the scientific disciplines from mathematics to biomedicine.

You can also take a diploma of science, which is generally shorter than a bachelor’s (approximately 1-2 years) and is used to prepare a student for their bachelor’s depending on the university they go to. No matter what pathway you take, once you complete your undergraduate degree, you will be eligible for postgraduate in your specific discipline, which increases your chances of success in your industry. Again, depending on the university’s faculty of science, it can take six months to several years to complete. 

However, you don’t have to be on campus to study science. If you’re interested in animal science, computing, health, social sciences and more, shortcourses.com.au has got you covered. We provide you with flexible online courses that can help develop your skills in those areas, which you can then add to your resume. Some courses can even help you find a job right away, for example, with a vet assistant certificate.
