The School of Science's researchers have a demonstrated record of success in collaborations, funding and research publications.
You will work with researchers who are past and present winners of ARC Future Fellowships and DECRA’s, the AGR Matthey Gold medal for outstanding contribution in the field of applied gold chemistry, the RK Murphy Medal for Industrial Chemistry, the Silver Jubilee Medal of the Chromatographic Society, London, the CLRI Padmabhushan Dr Y Nayudamma Chemcon Distinguished Speaker Award (awarded by the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers).

The majority of research staff are Members and Fellows of professional societies including: the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering, the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK, and the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI).

In the 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia assessments we were ranked at ‘well above world standard’ for physical chemistry and ‘above world standard’ for analytical chemistry.

You’ll be introduced to key institutions and concepts in criminal justice, including policing and the correctional system. You’ll also learn about the uses of technology in crime, crime theories and crime investigation.

The highly-regarded Bachelor of Criminal Justice focuses on preparing you for employment. Close links with criminal justice agencies are built into its design, development and delivery.
You'll explore how criminal justice systems work to serve individuals and the community through law enforcement, policy, practice and reform.

Classes about international human rights, global crime and public policy will give you the chance to expand your knowledge and expertise. In your final year, you’ll put your skills to the test with a 50-day work placement in a criminal justice organisation.

Learn through innovative programs like the Bridge of Hope Innocence Initative, a project where students work on real cases of wrongful conviction. 

If you want to enter the police forces, or work in corrections, courts, customs and related agencies, this degree is for you. It also provides a qualification for those working in relevant agencies to assist with career progression and moving into other related fields.

The sectors of smart grid technology and renewable energy are experiencing rapid growth. As a result, the field of power engineering has a strong employment market, offering a range of opportunities to electrical engineers.

• Renewable energy
• Power electronic converter systems
• High-voltage and protection systems

• Building services
• Industry control and automation.

This degree is suitable for both electrical engineering graduates looking for specialist knowledge in the latest power engineering technologies, as well as graduates from other disciplines seeking a career change.

You'll gain leading-edge knowledge and skills in power engineering with effective business skills in communication, teamwork and management.

Biomedical science courses allow you to understand how the human body functions, and the responses of the body to various diseases, exercise, diet, internal disturbances, and environmental influences.

You’ll learn how techniques in molecular biology and genetics are applied to diagnosing genes that cause cancer, making crops and livestock less vulnerable to disease, and making food safer.

You’ll complete studies in cell biology, physiology, microbiology and molecular biology. You can also choose to study anatomy, neuroscience, cardiovascular biology, industrial microbiology, proteomics, pharmaceutical sciences and applied biochemistry.

This is a dynamic and industry-relevant degree where you’ll explore practical and theoretical decoration and design frameworks to support a wide range of projects, creating innovative interior concepts and proposals.

Underpinned by the exploration of sustainable practices in the planning and specification of interior structures, there is a strong focus on the application of materials and surface treatments, furnishings, and colour and lighting solutions to create aesthetic and functional spaces in both residential and commercial environments.

Projects will provide you with opportunity to work directly with industry to develop an understanding of associated vocational roles.

On successful completion graduates may be employed in assisting in commercial design offices, working with lead designers in boutique design or decoration consultancies, working in colour consulting, and fulfilling design and decoration consultation outcomes in other related retail and wholesale sectors of the industry.

As an interior designer and decorator, you will create aesthetically pleasing and functional spaces working to design briefs. You’ll also design residential and commercial environments, drew sketches and produce samples of your designs. You will work directly with clients, specify materials, finishes and colour schemes, provide advice on artwork, supervise on-site design and construction, keep up with global trends and communicate effectively with clients and project consultants.

The Advanced Diploma of Screen and Media (Directing) is delivered as part of a sequence, beginning with the Diploma of Screen and Media (Content Creation).

Upon satisfactory completion of the diploma you will be eligible to progress to the advanced diploma.

This advanced diploma gives you the broad base necessary to move ahead in the art, design, screen and media industries. RMIT is renowned as Australia's leader in screen, interactive and new media education. We'll provide you with a creative and supportive environment of artistic and intellectual investigation with great opportunities to forge industry connections.

Develop the knowledge to implement new technologies, operating practices and systems in process, automotive, manufacturing, mining, energy and infrastructure-oriented businesses.

Studying in the heart of Melbourne, the Master of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) will help you gain specialist knowledge in:

• Advanced CAE
• Advanced dynamics
• Advanced control
• Advanced solid mechanics
• Advanced thermo fluids

You’ll also build high-level technical knowledge and appropriate professional skills such as management, leadership and business enterprise. And, with a focus on project-based and multi-disciplinary learning, you'll develop your professional engineering competencies in teamwork, leadership, problem solving, communication and research.

Upon graduation, you’ll be ready to step up as a project leader, consultant or manager in the mechanical engineering space.

Long associated with cutting edge technology and innovation, the aerospace and aviation industries attract people with advanced engineering knowledge and skills.

The Asian region is a key growth area for the aviation market, with double-digit growth rates in air traffic across China, Hong Kong and Singapore. Massive passenger growth means many more aircraft, larger and more airports, and larger and new airlines. This points to a need for more aerospace engineers, and more aviation-related employees.

During your study in the Master of Engineering (Aerospace), you'll learn how to analyse complex engineering assets in the aerospace and aviation environment; and you will develop engineering, scientific and technological solutions to ensure problem-free operations. Your skills will be further sharpened with systematic problem-solving and adherence to engineering/technological systems design methodologies operating in the industry.

In this sustainability-driven degree, you'll learn why civil engineering is the foundation of cities.

With RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Civil and Infrastructure) (Honours), you’ll be at the forefront of engineering education designed to satisfy industry demand.

Developed with an environmental sustainability focus, this internationally recognised degree will equip you with the skills to plan, design, construct, supervise, management and maintain infrastructure projects in Australia and overseas.

Customise your degree to your interests and career goals. Specialise in civil infrastructure projects, geotechnical works, structures, transport or water resources, and choose from a broad range of industry-relevant electives.
