Course Overview

The key characteristics of the Natural Sciences degree at Durham are choice, flexibility, and depth. The Natural Sciences degree program has a wide choice of subjects and there is a choice between modules within subjects. It is also a flexible degree programme and with most subjects, you can delay choosing your subjects until you get to Durham and you can also change the shape of your degree at the end of the first year. Tutorials, seminars, workshops, and practical classes are much smaller groups than lectures, small enough to allow one-to-one interaction with a member of staff. Practicals also allow hands-on experience of the work of professionals in the disciplines studied on the course. The same is true of fieldwork and consists of engaging in, for example, geological, biological, geographical, or anthropological work in the field with members of academic staff. This emphasis on small-group and practical teaching reflects a conscious choice to enhance the quality of the learning experience rather than the number of formal sessions.
