Course summary

Natural sciences opens a window into understanding the world - from the tiniest particles to the vastness of the cosmos. By exploring disciplines like physics, chemistry, biology, and earth sciences, or engaging in big science experimentation like BIFoR FACE, we uncover the rules that shape nature and solve real-world problems at the interface of disciplines. Studying natural sciences sharpens critical thinking, nurtures curiosity, and equips you with skills valued in research, technology, environmental protection, and beyond. It is about developing an interdisciplinary approach, blending diverse scientific fields to ignite your curiosity and shape your future with a unique scientific education. Develop your expertise in interdisciplinary science and follow your curiosity - Your journey will typically revolve around one primary subject, your Major, which will become your specialist discipline. Alongside your major and the core Natural Sciences modules that help develop your capacity as an interdisciplinary scientist, you will have the freedom to explore other subjects that ignite your curiosity. Create your unique expertise - Our approach to Natural Sciences ensures you gain a broad and versatile scientific education. Complement your Major with one, two or three additional subjects, crafting an original portfolio of expertise that builds on your interests and sets you apart. Flexible graduation options - At the end of your degree, you have the flexibility to graduate with a Natural Sciences degree, either with or without a major specialism, depending on your chosen modules. Assessments - you will be assessed in a variety of ways to help you transition to a new style of learning. At the beginning of each module, you will be given information on how and when you will be assessed. Assessments methods will vary with each module and could include: coursework, such as essays. Group and individual presentations and formal exams.
