About this programme

The Natural Sciences degree is a high-quality, modern education programme with an emphasis on the power of interdisciplinary and creative, innovative thinking and scientific problem solving. The degree draws on the strengths in science education and interdisciplinary research at King’s College London and will cover the spectrum of subjects across the natural sciences (biology, chemistry, computation, mathematics and physics), and with training in entrepreneurship skills. The programme is designed to train graduates with knowledge and applied understanding of principles of interdisciplinary sciences crossing traditional subject boundaries and skilled in finding solutions using cross-disciplinary approaches based on research and evidence, which will enhance their employability in a wide variety of careers of scientific and societal importance, including emerging and future industries that address major global challenges: Net Zero, sustainability, green growth, and the environment. Interdisciplinary science is regarded as vital for addressing the world’s challenges - with some of the most exciting research and innovation happening at the interface of scientific disciplines. Our course aims to build deep understanding of how disciplines intersect, and fosters critical thinking, creativity, and a broader perspective on tackling problems. In your first year, you will build a strong foundation in the core natural sciences disciplines - biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics, including facilitating your cross disciplinary thinking. This will be complemented by learning codi
