Course summary

The Natural Sciences BSc enables students to combine more than one science subject, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of high-quality, internationally leading research undertaken at UCL. The BSc programme enables students who wish to maintain a breadth of science subjects to follow a route of study combining a range of core and optional modules to gain a good grounding in two chosen streams.

Degree benefits

  • The core stream structure provides you with module options from across a spectrum of disciplines - physical, life and brain sciences.

  • You may broaden your knowledge further by taking optional modules in non-science subjects such as languages, management studies, computing and statistics.

  • While the programme offers a high level of flexibility, the core streams offer you a structured pathway to enable specialisation.

  • Members of our teaching staff are experts in their various fields and are active in research, so you will benefit from their cutting-edge knowledge in your lectures and tutorials.

Your learning

A variety of teaching methods are employed, including lecture classes, practical sessions such as laboratory or fieldwork (dependent on-stream choice), and small-group tutorials. You will also be expected to spend a substantial amount of time on coursework and private study.

Assessment

Assessment is primarily through end-of-year examinations for lecture-based modules, whereas practical work is continuously assessed. Coursework is important and must be passed to allow progression from one year to the next.

Careers

The programme provides an all-round scientific education. On completion of your degree, you will have cultivated transferable skills and the ability to solve problems in a quantitative way and to see science in a modern context.

You could choose to specialise in a defined, but usually interdisciplinary, science field and proceed to study for a wide range of possible postgraduate degree and doctoral programmes. Alternatively, you will be equipped to pursue many career options, for example, as a scientific journalist, in science teaching, as a management consultant or in finance and banking.
