To qualify for the Bachelor of Science (Honours) - 1 year, a student must complete 36 units with a grade of P or NGP or better in each topic, according to the program of study below.

Not all topics are necessarily available each year.

A student who has completed all the requirements of the Bachelor of Science with a major or specialisation (or extended major in accordance with the previous course rules) in an appropriate discipline area, or completed another qualification which the Dean (Education) agrees is equivalent, may be accepted for admission to an honours program provided a sufficiently high standard has been achieved in fulfilling the requirements of the bachelors degree.

Students who complete the Bachelor of Science with no major or extended major, or who hold a lesser qualification, may be admitted after completing additional work as prescribed by the Dean (Education).

As well as the student's undergraduate record the availability of an academic supervisor for the research project will be taken into account.

Some majors and specialisations within this degree are accredited by The Australian Institute of Physics, which conducts an ongoing accreditation program for physics qualifications obtained via university degree programs. Graduates who have completed a relevant major or specialisation within the program automatically qualify on application for admission to the AIP with the grade of Member.
