Program Overview

The GY301 Bachelor of Science degree programme allows you to take a variety of subjects in Science before you decide which scientific area to specialise in for your four-year honours degree. It is the ideal choice for students who are interested in several areas of science and who want the flexibility to explore their scientific interests further before committing to a particular specialism.

 

The programme provides a solid foundation in Science subjects in the first year, with module offerings in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Mathematical Studies, Computing and Applied Mathematics.

 

Progressing into second and third year you can choose from a wide range of 20 different specialities, referred to as pathways, including Microbiology, Zoology, Botany and Plant Science, Plant and AgriBiosciences, Earth and Ocean Sciences, Physics and Applied Physics, Physics and Climate Physics, Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Medicinal Chemistry, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Computing, Data Science.

 

You can study up to three of those pathways in Year 2, continuing with up to two pathways in Year 3, before choosing a single specialism for Year 4 of the programme, giving flexibility to discover your unique interests and build a tailored skillset that will lead you onto your scientific specialism.  To ensure quality in student experience, places in some pathways are limited, a quota system applies to pathways in Year 2.

 

The pathways are designed and delivered by research-active lecturers and thus incorporate course content inspired by current research trends, including public policy and industry partnership, whilst emphasising the importance of science communication. Our curricula embed sustainability and the principles of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, feature innovative teaching methods, and draw on our wide range of strengths from across the sciences at NUI Galway.
