Minors in the Bachelor of Building Science

A minor is an optional additional area of focus for a degree. The BBSc major subjects are also available as minors—but only to non-BBSc students.

A minor is made up of a collection of courses in a subject. The workload for a minor is lighter than for a major—fewer courses to do, fewer points required. This makes a minor a good way to build a second or third area of focus into your degree. Find out more about how minors work.

Minors in the BBSc are made up of at least 60 points from the relevant subject area at 200-level or above. At least 15 of these points must be at 300-level and not counted towards a major or another minor.

These minors are only available to non-BBSc students. Minors in the Bachelor of Building Science have the following requirements.
