Explore the possibilities of science from astronomy to zoology and everything in between with our most flexible science degree. Tailor a program to your unique interests while giving you the broad critical-thinking and problem-solving skills needed for the workforce.

A research topic course (ASTR3005) is offered to later-year ANU undergraduates, in which students undertake a research project in any area of astrophysics over the course of a semester.

Science PhB students have the opportunity to undertake astrophysics research projects within an Advanced Studies course.

Australian and New Zealand undergraduate students have the opportunity to participate in exciting science at the ANU Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics (RSAA) Winter School.

Each winter RSAA offers a number of Winter Scholarships, which enable suitably qualified undergraduate students to spend 1 week at Mount Stromlo Observatory to learn all the facets of doing research in astronomy from several of our faculty staff members. The program includes lectures on multiple research areas as well as hands-on work including observation planning, nighttime observations, data analysis and scientific writing.
