In this specialist route through our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64) degree, you’ll learn about the structure, properties and reactivity of molecules, and the integral role these play in our understanding of the world around us. On completion of your degree, as well as gaining an understanding of chemistry, you’ll develop analytical and scientific literacy skills carrying out practical work and a research project.

Earth science is the study of how our planet evolved and the forces that have shaped, and continue to shape, the earth that we live on. In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll learn why volcanoes occur, what fossils indicate about past environments, how the oceans regulate climate and why sea-level changes. As well as gaining an understanding of earth sciences, you’ll develop analytical and problem-solving skills.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll develop the knowledge and skills you need to explore the smallest and largest scales of the Universe. You’ll be able to objectively and quantitatively describe, analyse, test and explain phenomena in the physical world, using appropriate mathematical tools and experimental methods.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll explore diverse aspects of biology from cells to whole organisms, with further options to study subject areas such as human biology, or to explore the role of science in society. You’ll develop analytical and scientific literacy skills by carrying out practical work and a research project.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll develop the knowledge and skills you need to study outer space. You’ll be able to objectively and quantitatively describe, analyse, test and explain phenomena in the Universe, using appropriate quantitative tools and observational methods.

The General Studies: Natural Sciences & Mathematics program allows a student to develop their own course of study from the different disciplines within the Division of Natural Sciences & Mathematics. Students work with their advisors to tailor the classes in their degrees to match their personal and professional goals. This degree option serves students that need a custom program in preparation for further graduate studies or pre-professional coursework.

This BA (Honours) in Social Sciences (Geography) is one of several specialist routes available in our BA (Honours) Social Sciences (R23) degree. Half of your studies will be in interdisciplinary social science and sociology, giving you a firm grounding in the knowledge and ideas that are central to the social sciences. For the other half, you’ll learn how key geographical concepts can be applied to some of the most pressing challenges of the twenty-first century, including globalisation, development, climate change, migration and urbanisation.
