Natural Sciences (with Year Abroad) MSci (Hons)

Gain a wide range of skills and knowledge across different scientific disciplines. You’ll have the flexibility to shape your degree to your career aspirations. This is the course for you if you love science and want to study more than one science subject at university.

You can design your own degree to suit your interests and strengths. You’ll be able to take your existing scientific skills further, explore new areas and apply what you’ve learnt in practical and relevant ways.

If you decide during the first year your interests fit better within a single science, you may be able to transfer to year two of biology, biochemistry, chemistry, pharmacology or physics after year one. Employers will value your ability to bring problem-solving skills from a variety of different angles. You’ll graduate with the breadth of knowledge and practical skills to prepare you for a career in industry or for postgraduate research.
