This Combined Bachelor's and Master's (CBM) is a four-year accelerated program for those with an ATAR of 90 or above. Over the first three years you’ll complete an extended major in Integrated Earth and Marine Sciences, and some units from the Master of Geoscience. You can then choose to exit after three years with an Advanced Bachelor's Degree in Earth Sciences, or continue with the Master of Geoscience and be awarded a Bachelor of Earth Sciences and a Master of Geoscience at the end of the four years.

By completing this Combined Bachelor's and Master's course you will graduate with both a Bachelor of Earth Sciences and a Master of Geoscience .

In your first three years you will complete the Integrated Earth and Marine Sciences Extended Major which focuses on key knowledge and practical skills in the collection and interpretation of scientific data in both terrestrial and marine settings as well as data analysis and synthesis techniques, followed by a semester of postgraduate study.

You will then complete a final year of postgraduate study in the Master of Geoscience which includes core units that seek to ensure you have strong interdisciplinary and disciplinary knowledge and technical skills in geoscience to take advantage of diverse career opportunities in industry, government, consultancies and research institutions. Elective units provide additional breadth and a research project or capstone units provide specific advanced disciplinary knowledge and skills.
