What will I learn?
A Bachelor of Science (BSc) is about understanding and improving the natural world through observation, experimentation, modelling, and calculation. You will investigate the big issues confronting New Zealand and our planet, including climate change, human health and diseases, the global water crisis, food security, and environmental protection. A BSc will expose you to new ideas and technologies, develop your research skills, and help you make a contribution to the challenges facing our world. Study Involve: Learn from a wide network of field stations reaching from Antarctica to Nigeria and throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. ‘Do science’ right from the first semester of your first year. We have access to the most field stations of any New Zealand university and offer a range of practical experiences, research projects, and lab and fieldwork. Global study experiences, including exchanges to partner universities. You can choose to take a minor in Science, or from additional subjects in Arts, Commerce, Digital Screen, Health, Product Design, Sport, or Youth and Community Leadership. Environmental Science is the study of the natural world, its ecosystems, and our interactions with it. This knowledge is particularly important today as we focus more on biosecurity, sustainability, natural disasters, and global climate change. Study Involve: UC operates field stations at Cass and Kawatiri Westport where you will do fieldwork and research. Study Environmental Science in many ways - either as Bachelor of Environmental Science with Honours, a major within the Bachelor of Science, or as a minor within other bachelor’s degrees. The Bachelor of Environmental Science with Honours is the only degree of its kind in Aotearoa, and is accredited by the Environment Institute of Australia and New Zealand (EIANZ) to deliver environmental practitioners for roles in industry, government, education and research, and the community.
