Natural Sciences is a group of courses emphasizing the examination of the physical universe, its life forms, and its natural phenomena.

The Natural Sciences represent a branch of science with multiple paths that deals with the physical world, including physics, chemistry, geology, biology, and astronomy. The Associate in Science degree in Natural Sciences will be awarded upon satisfactory completion of the Major course requirements and the General Education requirements.

University of Lodz Doctoral School of Exact and Natural Sciences provides support and guidance to those seeking a PhD in Exact and Natural Sciences seekers that prepare dissertations in the following disciplines: Mathematics, Biological Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Physical Sciences, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Informatics – starting from the academic year 2024/2025.

PhD in Natural Sciences: GCAS College Dublin is recruiting the best minds and researchers of the next generation. We are excited to form the first class of our new Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) programme in the Humanities and Social Sciences. We aim to support our students and researchers with the highest quality of educational resources available.

An emphasis on Natural Sciences provides the student with an understanding of living and non-living systems and promotes an appreciation of the methodologies and tools of science. Students may select courses that focus on a specific major and then select complementary courses to strengthen their selected focus or they may select courses that strengthen and broaden their overall understanding of the Natural Sciences.

The General Studies: Natural Sciences & Mathematics program allows a student to develop their own course of study from the different disciplines within the Division of Natural Sciences & Mathematics. Students work with their advisors to tailor the classes in their degrees to match their personal and professional goals. This degree option serves students that need a custom program in preparation for further graduate studies or pre-professional coursework.

Earth science is the study of how our planet evolved and the forces that have shaped, and continue to shape, the earth that we live on. In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll learn why volcanoes occur, what fossils indicate about past environments, how the oceans regulate climate and why sea-level changes. As well as gaining an understanding of earth sciences, you’ll develop analytical and problem-solving skills.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll develop the knowledge and skills you need to explore the smallest and largest scales of the Universe. You’ll be able to objectively and quantitatively describe, analyse, test and explain phenomena in the physical world, using appropriate mathematical tools and experimental methods.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll explore diverse aspects of biology from cells to whole organisms, with further options to study subject areas such as human biology, or to explore the role of science in society. You’ll develop analytical and scientific literacy skills by carrying out practical work and a research project.

In this specialist route through our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64) degree, you’ll learn about the structure, properties and reactivity of molecules, and the integral role these play in our understanding of the world around us. On completion of your degree, as well as gaining an understanding of chemistry, you’ll develop analytical and scientific literacy skills carrying out practical work and a research project.

The Mathematics and Natural Science Program provides a strong foundation for students who plan to attend a four-year institution and major in mathematics or one of the natural sciences.

The Natural History Departmental Award recognizes achievement by students interested in careers in natural history interpretation, freshwater and marine fisheries, forestry, environmental monitoring, and wildlife management. The curriculum for the Natural History Departmental Award is individually designed with the student's career goals, interests, and talents in mind. The courses are selected in consultation with Faculty Adviser for Natural History. The Faculty Adviser will then submit this program of study to the Biological Sciences Department for review and approval.

In this specialist route available in our BSc (Honours) Natural Sciences (Q64), you’ll develop the knowledge and skills you need to study outer space. You’ll be able to objectively and quantitatively describe, analyse, test and explain phenomena in the Universe, using appropriate quantitative tools and observational methods.

The Associate of Arts Liberal Arts with an emphasis in Natural Sciences and Mathematics requires completion of 64 credits which must include the General Education Core plus 18 ± 24 credits in Science and/or Mathematics courses taken from subjects in the Division of Natural Sciences and Mathematics. This degree provides a solid liberal arts foundation accompanied by strong preparation in Science and Math. Completion of this degree prepares students to continue in multiple science baccalaureate programs as well as programs in health sciences.

The Doctorate in Language Sciences offers advanced training in the fields of language, in general, and natural languages, with particular emphasis on an applied dimension.
