Course Overview

Understanding the impact of human activities on our environment is essential to protecting it for future generations. The Environmental and Analytical Science BSc(Hons) degree at Huddersfield gives you a comprehensive understanding of Earth's systems and equips you with the skills and knowledge of an analytical scientist. Before specialising in your final year, you'll have the chance to study a range of subjects, including biogeography, inorganic and organic chemistry, earth processes, landscape, and fluvial systems, climate science, and sustainability. In the third year of the course, youll have the opportunity to benefit from a work placement. This could help you to gain relevant real-world experience and give you a head start in your chosen career. In the final year, youll have the chance to develop and hone your independent research skills as part of the research project module. We also firmly believe in learning through doing, and since fieldwork is an integral part of any environmental scientist's training, we've embedded field trips throughout all years of study. All our teaching staff is educated to the doctoral level and has expertise in various environmental and analytical subject areas.
