Course summary

Explaining Natural Sciences Natural sciences allows you to study a combination of science subjects, getting to experience these at university before specialising later in the degree. You'll choose a combination of three subjects (called a stream) in your first year and study two subjects to degree level from your second year onwards. You can continue to study familiar subjects but can also study subjects you may not have studied before such as archaeology, cancer sciences, earth science, the environment or psychology. Our course offers the flexibility to focus on what you are interested in, develop a wide range of knowledge and skills and understand how scientific disciplines fit together. The MSci degree adds a further year of advanced study to the standard BSc focusing on one subject in your final year. This is designed to enhance your research, analytical and project management skills. Find out more about the subjects you can study. Why choose this course?
