The BSc (Common Entry) was designed as a common entry course for the student who has a keen interest in science, but is unsure of which area they would like to specialise in. This gives a variety of scientific disciplines, to keep their options open when applying to study science at third level.

This concentration enables students to understand and assess society within international, human, and social contexts. Students can focus on business, conflict transformation, or a specific geographical area: Africa, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, or Southeast Asia. For students interested in global affairs, conflict resolution, civil service, and international organizations.

The bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary science offers a student the opportunity to design an individualized, multidisciplinary degree program with a solid foundation in the natural sciences. A distribution of upper-division electives may include courses in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics.

With International Development Management, you will become an expert in transitions toward a more sustainable and just society.

Integrated science and technology (ISAT) students learn about a broad range of scientific, technological, and social concepts and master concrete skills that will make them leaders in solving the real human problems that confront our world. Students start with a common foundations curriculum and then progress into more specialized technical areas of their choice during their junior and senior years. Studies in ISAT combine multiple scientific areas into one hands-on, integrated program in which students learn by working directly with technology and applying it to solve real-world problems.

International Relations and Global Affairs (IRGA) is a unique program addressing these topics. Combining history and political science, economics and law, sociology, and psychology, the program provides a coherent interdisciplinary curriculum that allows students to develop their understanding of how people, groups, countries, and international organizations interact in different parts of the world.
