Natural Sciences with International Study

Explaining Natural Sciences
Natural sciences allows you to study a combination of science subjects, getting to experience these at university before specialising later in the degree. You'll choose a combination of three subjects (called a stream) in your first year and study two subjects to degree level from your second year onwards.

You can continue to study familiar subjects but can also study subjects you may not have studied before such as archaeology, cancer sciences, earth science, the environment or psychology.

Study abroad
The BSc with International Study is a four-year degree where you spend your third year studying at one of our partner institutions overseas in places like Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, North America or Europe. An international year has many employability benefits that will help you in your career. You will develop key skills such as communication, confidence, language and independence. All of these are extremely sought after by employers.

Subjects available
Our course offers the flexibility to focus on what interests you. Choose multiple subject combinations from:
- Archaeology

- Cancer Sciences

- Chemistry

- Earth Science

- Ecosystem and Environment

- Maths

What you will study
A highlight of the course is the synoptic project where you work on a group project with students from other streams. You will bring your individual expertise to the project and find new ways to apply the knowledge from your learning in previous years.

Careers
You'll graduate with the knowledge and technical skills to take a broad scientific approach to help tackle today's complex problems. Our graduates use their knowledge to work for companies including Cancer Research, the National Nuclear Laboratory and Rolls-Royce. You'll also benefit from a global outlook, gained during your time spent abroad.
