Natural Sciences with professional placement or study abroad Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)

Course Overview - Natural Sciences with professional placement or study abroad Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)

This course is for you if you love science and want to study more than one science subject at university.

Our natural sciences degree is highly-flexible, allowing you to tailor your studies to your interests and strengths. You can choose to broaden your course further by adding units from additional subjects such as management, education, psychology or mathematics. Equally, if you decide your interests fit better within a single science subject, you may be able to transfer to biology, biochemistry, chemistry, pharmacology or physics after year one.

Entry Requirements

A level

Typical offer: A*AA in three A levels including one of the following combinations of subjects: - Biology and Chemistry - Chemistry and Mathematics - Biology, Mathematics and Physics - Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. Which subjects you have studied at A level will determine which subjects you can choose to study during your degree. If you study A Level Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics you will be able to choose any of the valid combinations. If you study at least one valid combination requiring Physics you will only be considered for the Physics combinations. If you study Biology and do not study Physics you will only be considered for the Biology and Chemistry combination. Contextual offer: AAB in three A levels including A in each subject from one of the following combinations: - A in Biology and A in Chemistry - A in Chemistry and A in Mathematics - B in Biology, A in Mathematics and A in Physics - B in Chemistry, A in Mathematics and A in Physics. Alternative offer: AAA or A*AB in three A levels plus additional study - please see the course pages on our website. All offers include A in each subject from one of the following combinations: - Biology and Chemistry - Chemistry and Mathematics - Biology, Mathematics and Physics (AAA only) - Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics (AAA only)
