The Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies (Sustainability) is a contemporary interdisciplinary degree which prepares students to address the challenges of sustainability. The degree draws from the complementary strengths of ANU Colleges in education and research for sustainability. The degree is structured around:

- a common core of courses focused in interdisciplinary learning and research skills relevant to sustainability, and their application to practice

- a limited suite of courses which provide the foundation for knowledge and skills relevant to the breadth of sustainability challenges

- a choice of two majors which are complementary to sustainability to develop particular knowledge and skills relevant to sustainability.

There are no formal program prerequisites, however science, engineering and information technology majors require prerequisite knowledge as listed above for CHEM1101, PHYS1101 and MATH.
