Students who have accepted an offer into a major of the BHlthSc or other undergraduate course are required to enrol as specified in the course summary sheet. For example, a BHlthSc (Health Info Management) student must enrol in the enrolment program for that major and not the BHlthSc (Nut & Diet).


If you wish to use your first year of study as a means to upgrade your OP ranking score to get into another course the following year, you will find an answer in the Frequently Asked Questions.

For information on bridging courses for Chemistry or Maths B, visit the bridging courses section.

If both courses are within the Faculty of Health

From one major to another major in the same course
If you wish transfer from one major to another major of the same course, eg. PU40 BHlthSc (Public Health) to PU40 BHlthSc (Health Information Management), you can apply at the end of any semester using an Intra-Faculty Course Change form (R/I form). A transfer will only be allowed if you meet the requirements and a quota place is available. Note that you must complete at least one semester of study of the course/major in the university's letter of offer before applying for a transfer to another course/major in the Faculty of Health.

From one course to a different course
If you wish to transfer from a Faculty of Health course to another Faculty of Health course, eg. PU40 BHlthSc (Environmental Health) to HM42 BAppSc (Human Movement Studies), you need to complete an Intra-Faculty Course Change form (R/I form). Use this form if you wish to transfer to:
* another course offered by the same faculty,
* from a single to a double degree in the same faculty, provided both components of the double degree are provided by the faculty,
* from one degree to another double degree where the faculty or faculties involved in the course being sought are those involved in the current course, or
* to a single component of a double degree

Note: If you are currently studying a degree that is the health component of a double degree with another faculty other than Health, you must apply via QTAC E.g. if you are studying BHlthSc(HSM) and wish to apply for the double degree Bachelor of Business/BHlthSc(HSM), you must apply via QTAC.

Transferring to a course in another Faculty of QUT

If you wish to transfer to an undergraduate course offered in another Faculty of QUT you must apply through QTAC (for undergraduate). E.g. if you are studying BHlthSc (Podiatry) and wish to study BBus (Marketing), you must apply via QTAC.
