In the BSc degree, you take four subjects in your first year, one of which is Mathematics; You have three weeks at the beginning of term to choose your other three subjects; In your first year you’ll also have the opportunity to study Critical Skills – this is an optional 15 credit course specifically focused on developing skills such as: analytical skills, the ability to deal with complex arguments, evaluating evidence and making balanced judgements, and the ability to communicate ideas clearly both verbally and in writing; After first year you can choose progress in either a Double Major (taking two subjects equally to degree level), or a Single Major, where you take two subjects in third year and after that, specialise in one subject; In your second year you’ll have the opportunity to take an Elective. This will give you the chance to study a topic from another subject area that you find especially interesting – it could be a topic like entrepreneurship, climate change, philosophy, programming, macroeconomics or even a new language like Mandarin Chinese.

As a student of science or engineering, you will develop strong problem-solving and analytical skills, as well as advanced teamwork, leadership, and numeracy skills – all of which are highly valued in many sectors of the labour market.
