MSci 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 during the second and third years.
The MSci degree adds a further year of advanced study to the standard BSc focusing on one subject in your final year. This is designed to enhance your research, analytical and project management skills.
Our course offers the flexibility to focus on what you are interested in. You can continue to study familiar subjects but can also study subjects you may not have studied before.
You can choose multiple subject combinations from:
The subjects you study are enhanced by collaborative modules in the second and third year. This encourages you to understand theories and ideas from different areas of science and how they work together. 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.
During the masters year you gain specialist experience in a professional research environment through an independent research project. This is good preparation for research job roles within industry, or if you are considering further study, such as a PhD.
