Science
Build a broad scientific foundation across physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology.
About this field of study
Science programmes develop the analytical, experimental and mathematical skills that underpin research and technology. Students study core disciplines such as physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology, learning to design experiments, interpret evidence and reason quantitatively about the natural world.
A science education is a gateway to research, engineering, healthcare, data and teaching pathways. Guidance in this area focuses on aligning subject combinations with intended degree specialisations and understanding how laboratory, project and research experience strengthen later applications.
