Science in the City

The way science can change the world is endless. Working in a diverse range of jobs across all industries, scientists explore and discover new things about the world in which we live.

Connected, relevant and focused on making an impact, science at RMIT is all about finding solutions that will change the way we live, travel, learn and work.

RMIT’s range of science disciplines, combined with work integrated learning translate into great job outcomes for science graduates.

Science in the City – lab tour

Science at RMIT is about providing the knowledge and practical skills to tackle real world problems. A range of single and double degree science programs are available on our city campus including: biology, biotechnology chemistry, environmental science, food science, nanotechnology, and physics. Many of these can now be studied as a double degree with engineering or with business management, making them even more work relevant.

We would like to offer students, parents and teachers the opportunity to visit our start-of-the-art learning laboratories, learn more about the programs on offer and the research and training facilities available. If you’re a ‘hands on person’ come and Discover what Science at RMIT is all about.

Lunch or refreshments are provided.

Tour dates:

  • Thursday 11 April, 1.30 pm - 4.00 pm(Sorry, fully booked)
  • Tuesday 2 July, 11.00 am - 1.30 pm
