SCGEO3109 ADVANCED FIELDWORK
Advanced fieldwork provides students with the opportunity to observe the geology in an area whose geology is markedly different to that accessible to us in eastern Australia. This unit is typically undertaken at and international location of complex geology, and students undertake a range of tasks, including mapping, research activities, mine and other site visits to places of specific geological interest to undertake activities. This unit not only exposes students to unique geology in a remote location, it also gives students the opportunity to experience other cultures, and mix with geoscientists in those locations.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
