This course is a multidisciplinary degree which allows you to study three subjects in the first year and continue with two subjects in the second and third year.  The combination of subjects which you study in the first year allows you to find out what each subject is like at university before you specialize further.  In addition to studying the core aspects of a subject you have the opportunity to explore specialist areas through optional modules as you progress through the course.  Both of the subjects taken beyond the first year will be studied to degree level. This degree aims to provide you with a broad knowledge and understanding of your chosen areas of science, as well as experience of interdisciplinary study. On completion of your course you will have gained a multidisciplinary degree which will prepare you for further study or work in many exciting interdisciplinary areas of modern science, such as nanotechnology, systems biology, sustainable energy technology, environmental science or chemical physics. You will have acquired professional, analytical and communication skills, as well as an understanding of scientific investigations, which will allow you to be confident about working in a variety of scientific fields. You will also have developed valuable transferable skills in information technology, time management, critical thinking, organization and team working.
