Hi all,
Any idea how much I'm going to have to fork out for textbooks at the start of uni next year? I'm either doing a bachelors of research science or a double of biomed and eng.

Cheers

The science - research course will have the exact same textbook requirements as if you're studying a standard bachelor of science.

It'll depend on which units (subjects) you take but you're looking at around $600 all up.

You can save money on this by buying second hand, only getting the ebook rather than the physical text,   or opting to not buy the textbook and instead borrow from the library as required.

Thanks very much! I'm sure it'll vary by course but I just needed that ball park figure.
