The world needs scientists who have expertise not just in science, but also in putting science into a global context. Join the Bachelor of Natural Sciences to discover the solutions to today’s big issues like species extinction, climate change, spiralling population growth and the spread of disease. If you are interested in science subjects such as biology, chemistry and physics and like to tackle complex problems, the Bachelor of Natural Sciences could be for you. Where scientific thinking meets real world problems Massey’s natural sciences degree provides you with a broad and flexible education across the sciences. Using inquiry-based learning, you will analyse issues such as sustainability from an interdisciplinary perspective. Opportunities to engage in exciting research projects and electives from subjects beyond the traditional science disciplines means you will be working where scientific thinking meets real world problems. In the study of natural sciences you will be encouraged to work across scientific areas, both independently and as part of a team. You’ll learn about sustainability, philosophy of science and project management, putting fundamental sciences into the real world to come up with real solutions. This is unlike the traditional study of fundamental sciences, where the study of mathematics, chemistry, biology and physics are kept quite separate.
