Degrees at Streatham Campus, Exeter
Natural Sciences at the University of Exeter
Our Natural Sciences degrees are specially designed to let you work across all the sciences without pathways or constraints.
We combine our expertise in Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Computer Science to deliver a learning experience that draws directly upon our research, exploring exciting topics including mathematical and computational biology; materials science and materials chemistry; the science of oceans, atmospheres and climate; astrophysics; and energy research.
Our department is nurturing and supportive and we’ll encourage you to follow your interests and develop your own ideas as an independent scientist and researcher.
"The flexibility of the course is amazing! Being able to choose modules from different departments and even outside of science allows for such an interesting learning experience."
It’s also great as the future of sciences is multidisciplinary so this course allows you to become a scientist that is able to possess skills across many disciplines. My favourite thing about studying in Exeter is the support network. The course leaders are so supportive and are always available to help you no matter how small the issue. That goes for the students too, the course is small so you get to know everyone really well, and this leads to an amazing community.
