Educational Aims
Our educational aims are that graduates at the end of this MSci degree courses should have a good knowledge andunderstanding of theoretical and practical chemistry, chemical sciences, and related biological and pharmaceutical topics andthat they:
have the qualities required by employers in the chemical, pharmaceutical and related industries for high-qualitychemistry graduates<li>have developed specialist knowledge and experience in aspects of chemistry and biochemical and pharmaceuticalsciences.<li> have been instructed in, developed and used transferable skills including problem-solving, numeracy; team working;use of IT and computing; information retrieval, and both oral and written communication.<li> gain additional experience in planning of experiments, time management and independent data handling and reportwriting in their assessed year in industry and final year project.<br><br>The BSc degree, FC1T, course will provide a less specialised training in the same areas of medicinal & biologicalchemistry, whilst retaining a significant amount of practical training during the industrial placement. (nb Students willNOT be recruited onto the B.Sc. course only transferred from the M.Sci. course)
Outline Description of Course
This course is designed to provide a high-level, challenging and rewarding education and experience for those seeking careers inthe Chemical, Pharmaceutical and Biotechnological areas, whether in academic life, industry or other professions.<br><br>The MSci degree allows a broad range of specific topics in chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmaceutical sciences to be studied. Afirm foundation in chemical and pharmaceutical science principles is established in years 1 and 2. The MSci degree has anassessed research year in industry (Year 3). This provides valuable practical experience of industrial chemistry. Students willundertake a year-long research project which will be supervised by both an industrial and academic supervisor (from School ofChemistry or Pharmacy). The Schools of Chemistry and Pharmacy have excellent links with industry and placements may beoffered in many of the major chemical and pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca, MerckSharp and Dohme, ICI, BP, Organon, Syngenta, Celltech, Avecia and Novartis. A broad range of specific topics in chemistry andpharmacy will also be studied in years 3 (distance learning) and 4. An independent research project to further develop thepractical and theoretical skills learnt earlier in the course and in industry will be carried out in Year 4.<br><br>The teaching is provided <i>via </i>a modular system, with the degree being based on Credits; for an MSci degree 480 creditsare required, 120 in each year. A lecture course of ca. 18 lectures would normally be worth 10 Credits, the number of studenthours per credit being 10 hrs where this includes lectures, tutorials, other teaching methods including workshops and seminars,private study and examination/assessment. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters (Autumn and Spring),delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and Part III.<br><br>The BSc degree has the same module content as the first three years of the MSci course and is only available to students whofail to progress from Part II to Part III of the MSci degree based on the criteria described below but who satisfy the requirementsof the BSc course.
The 'hands-on' laboratory modules complement the core chemistry, pharmacy and biochemistry theory modules and aredesigned to give students vital experience in practical chemistry and pharmaceutical sciences. The Medicinal Chemistry module(F13MNA) includes lectures given by specially selected and invited speakers from branches of the pharmaceutical, agrochemicaland biotechnology sectors.<br><br>The assessed year in industry gives an opportunity to gain valuable industrial experience while continuing to develop chemistrylearning. In addition to the core chemistry and pharmacy knowledge, the degree will also equip students with skills such asacquiring information, analysing information, communicating information, time management and working with others.

Progression Information:
<b>Assessment rules</b><br>
The assessment rules for these degrees are provided in the Faculty of Science and Student handbooks.<br><br><b>Additional progression rules for M.Sci. students</b><br>Students will be directed to apply for and must secure their industrial placement during their 2nd year. However, to progress from Year2 to Year 3 students must achieve a credit -weighted average of at least 60% in year 2 to remain on the M.Sci. Medicinal & BiologicalChemistry with an Assessed Year in Industry degree course. This will rise to 65% from 2012/13. Only module marks gained at firstattempt are used for the purposes of calculating the year average. Students who do not meet these criteria, or do not secure aplacement, but meet the requirements for progression to the single honours M.Sci or B.Sc. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry degrees willbe offered a transfer to one of these courses. At the end of year 3 the students must achieve a credit-weighted average of at least 50%in year 3 to be allowed to progress into the final year of the M.Sci. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry with an Assessed Year in Industrydegree course. Again only module marks gained at first attempt are used for the purposes of calculating the year average. Students notmeeting these criteria but meeting the requirements for a B.Sc. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry with an assessed year in industrydegree will be awarded a B.Sc. degree. Its classification will be based on their performance in years two and three as described below.Student failing to meet the requirements for the B.Sc. degree will be awarded a diploma or certificate as set out in the University QualityManualDegree Information:
<b>For the B.Sc. degree</b><br>In the second and third year, the modules marks are used to calculate the overall degree average. Marks for the second and third yearare weighted 30%:70% respectively toward the final degree mark and this is calculated using the arithmetic model, 'model 1' asdescribed in the University Quality Manual.<br><b>For the M.Sci. degree</b><br>

As student experience increases some of the material becomes more open-ended requiringstudent-centred learning. Transferable skills are taught early in the courses and students are then given opportunities to practice anddevelop their skills in writing, oral presentation and viva situations.
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment methods are of two main types, through formal University examinations and continuous assessment (notably practical work,Literature and Communication Skills modules, research projects, and computational chemistry modules). As student knowledge,experience and confidence grows they undertake wider-ranging project work leading to an oral presentation and major written reportand independent research project. During the industrial placement year assessment is also via tutorial sheets, open book exams and/or adissertation essay.

Teaching/learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. In the early years of the course much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by laboratory classes, tutorials,problem-solving workshops and seminars. As student experience increases some of the material becomes more open-ended requiringstudent-centred learning and particularly in project-type work which counts for half of the final year of the MSci degrees. Projects maybe undertaken at the University, in mainland Europe and in Industry. Transferable skills are taught early in the courses and students arethen given opportunities to practice and develop their skills in writing, oral presentation and viva situations.
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment methods are of two main types, through formal University examinations and continuous assessment (notably practical work,Literature and Communication Skills modules, research projects, and computational chemistry modules). As student knowledge,experience and confidence grows they undertake wider–ranging project work leading to an oral presentation and major written report.

Educational Aims
Our educational aim is that graduates from the MSci degree course have a good knowledge and understanding oftheoretical and practical chemistry that, following appropriate training and experience, will enable them to becomeChartered Chemists (CChem). The course satisfies the Accreditation requirements of the Royal Society of Chemistry.In addition, graduates;have the qualities required by employers in the chemical and related industries for high-quality chemistry graduateshave developed specialist knowledge and experience in aspects of Chemistry and Chemical Sciences.have been instructed in, developed and used transferable skills including problem-solving, numeracy; team working; useof IT and computing; information retrieval, and both oral and written communication.
Outline Description of Course
The MSci Chemistry degree course is designed to provide a high-level, challenging and rewarding education and experience forthe chemistry leaders of the future, whether in academic life, industry or other professions, and to satisfy the academicrequirements for the award of Chartered Chemist (CChem).The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on Credits; for an MSci Chemistry degree 480credits are required, 120 in each year. A lecture course of ca. 20 lectures would normally be worth 10 Credits, the number ofstudent hours per credit being 10 hrs where this includes lectures, tutorials, other teaching methods including workshops andseminars, private study and examination/assessment. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters (Autumn andSpring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and Part III.
The 'hands-on' laboratory modules complement the core chemistry theory modules and are designed to give students vitalexperience in practical chemistry. There is a very wide range of 4th year research projects spanning the whole range ofchemistry and chemical science and these may be taken in UK industry or at one of a number of continental EuropeanUniversities.

Our educational aims are that graduates at the end of the MSci degree courses have a good knowledge andunderstanding of theoretical and practical chemistry that, following appropriate training and experience, will enable themto become Chartered Chemists (CChem), and, in this context, the courses satisfy the Accreditation requirements of theRoyal Society of Chemistry,In addition, graduates;have the qualities required by employers in the chemical and related industries for high-quality chemistry graduateshave developed specialist knowledge and experience in aspects of Chemistry and Chemical Sciences and InternationalStudy.have been instructed in, developed and used transferable skills including problem-solving, numeracy; team working; useof IT and computing; information retrieval, and both oral and written communication.
Outline Description of Course
The MSci Chemistry degree course is designed to provide a high-level, challenging and rewarding education and experience forthe chemistry leaders of the future, whether in academic life, industry or other professions, and to satisfy the academicrequirements for the award of Chartered Chemist (CChem).The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on Credits; for an MSci Chemistry degree 480credits are required, 120 in each year. A lecture course of ca. 20 lectures would normally be worth 10 Credits, the number ofstudent hours per credit being 10 hrs where this includes lectures, tutorials, other teaching methods including workshops andseminars, private study and examination/assessment. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters (Autumn andSpring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and Part III.
The 'hands-on' laboratory modules complement the core chemistry theory modules and are designed to give students vitalexperience in practical chemistry. There is a very wide range of 4th year research projects spanning the whole range ofchemistry and chemical science and these may be taken in UK industry or at one of a number of continental EuropeanUniversities.
The MSci Chemistry with an International Study Year degree affords the opportunity to develop skills alongside the coreChemistry theme, through experience in computational aspects of chemistry and a period of study at another University, forexample in Australia, Canada Hong Kong the USA or New Zealand.

Outline Description of Course
The MSci Chemistry degree course is designed to provide a high-level, challenging and rewarding education and experience forthe chemistry leaders of the future, whether in academic life, industry or other professions, and to satisfy the academicrequirements for the award of Chartered Chemist (CChem).The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on Credits; for an MSci Chemistry degree 480credits are required, 120 in each year. A lecture course of ca. 20 lectures would normally be worth 10 Credits, the number ofstudent hours per credit being 10 hrs where this includes lectures, tutorials, other teaching methods including workshops andseminars, private study and examination/assessment. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters (Autumn andSpring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and Part III.
The 'hands-on' laboratory modules complement the core chemistry theory modules and are designed to give students vitalexperience in practical chemistry. There is a very wide range of 4th year research projects spanning the whole range ofchemistry and chemical science and these may be taken in UK industry or at one of a number of continental EuropeanUniversities.
The MSci Chemistry with a Research Year in Industry affords the opportunity to develop skills alongside the core Chemistrytheme, through experience in computational aspects of chemistry and a year-long period in an industrial chemical company.

Teaching/learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. In the early years of the course much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by laboratory classes, tutorials,problem-solving workshops and seminars. As student experience increases some of the material becomes more open-ended requiringstudent-centred learning and particularly in project-type work which counts for half of the final year of the MSci degrees. Projects may beundertaken at the University, in mainland Europe and in Industry. Transferable skills are taught early in the courses and students arethen given opportunities to practice and develop their skills in writing, oral presentation and viva situations.

Teaching/learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. In the early years of the course much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by laboratory classes, tutorials,problem-solving workshops and seminars. As student experience increases some of the material becomes more open-ended requiringstudent-centred learning and particularly in project-type work which counts for half of the final year of the MSci degrees. Projects maybe undertaken at the University, in mainland Europe and in Industry. Transferable skills are taught early in the courses and students arethen given opportunities to practice and develop their skills in writing, oral presentation and viva situations.
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment methods are of two main types, through formal University examinations and continuous assessment (notably practical work,Literature and Communication Skills modules, research projects, and computational chemistry modules). As student knowledge,experience and confidence grows they undertake wider�ranging project work leading to an oral presentation and major written report.

Outline Description of Course
The MSci Chemistry degree course is designed to provide a high-level, challenging and rewarding education and experience forthe chemistry leaders of the future, whether in academic life, industry or other professions, and to satisfy the academicrequirements for the award of Chartered Chemist (CChem). There are three closely related Chemistry ‘with’ degrees, MSciChemistry with Computational Chemistry (CwCC), MSci Chemistry with an International Study Year (CwISY), and MSci Chemistrywith a Research Year in Industry (CwRYI). These have the same principal objectives but provide an additional dimension throughstudy of modern computational aspects of chemistry, through a full time period of chemistry study in a University abroad (Year3), and an intercalated additional research year in industry between years 3 and 4, respectively. The BSc 3-year degrees havessimilar objectives but allow a wider range of topics to be studied in Year 3;. the BSc degree in Chemistry with IndustrialExperience includes an intercalated additional year of industrial experience between years 2 and 3.
<p>The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on Credits; for an MSci Chemistry degree 480credits are required, 120 in each year. A lecture course of ca. 20 lectures would normally be worth 10 Credits, the number ofstudent hours per credit being 7.5 hrs where this includes lectures, tutorials, other teaching methods including workshops andseminars, private study and examination/assessment. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters (Autumn andSpring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and Part III.
The ‘hands-on’ laboratory modules complement the core chemistry theory modules and are designed to give students vitalexperience in practical chemistry. There is a very wide range of 4th year research projects spanning the whole range ofchemistry and chemical science and these may be taken in UK industry or at one of a number of continental EuropeanUniversities.
<p>The MSci Chemistry with Computational Chemistry, MSci Chemistry with an International Study Year, and MSci Chemistrywith a Research Year in Industry or BSc Chemistry with Industrial Experience degrees afford the opportunity to develop skillsalongside the core Chemistry theme, through experience in computational aspects of chemistry, a period of study at anotherUniversity, for example in Australia, the USA or The Netherlands, and a year–long period in an industrial chemical company,respectively.

Introduction
Teaching/learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. Although much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by laboratory/practical classes, problem-solving workshopsand seminars, some of the material requires more open-ended student-centred learning. Transferable skills are taught via a series ofmodules in the course and students are given opportunities to practice and develop their skills in writing, oral presentation and vivasituations.
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment of A1–A5 is by a combination of unseen written examinations, coursework and oral presentations.
Assessment methods are of two main types, through formal University examinations and continuous assessment (notably researchprojects, communication skills modules, practical work). As student knowledge, experience and confidence grows they undertakewider–ranging project work leading to an oral presentation, independent research project and major written report.

The assessment rules for these degrees are provided in the Faculty of Science and Student handbooks.<br><br><b>Additional progression rules for M.Sci. students</b><br>Students will be directed to apply for and must secure their industrial placement during their 2nd year. However, to progress from Year2 to Year 3 students must achieve a credit -weighted average of at least 60% in year 2 to remain on the M.Sci. Medicinal & BiologicalChemistry with an Assessed Year in Industry degree course. Only module marks gained at first attempt are used for the purposes ofcalculating the year average. Students who do not meet these criteria, or do not secure a placement, but meet the requirements forprogression to the single honours M.Sci or B.Sc. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry degrees will be offered a transfer to one of thesecourses. At the end of year 3 the students must achieve a credit-weighted average of at least 50% in year 3 to be allowed to progressinto the final year of the M.Sci. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry with an Assessed Year in Industry degree course. Again only modulemarks gained at first attempt are used for the purposes of calculating the year average. Students not meeting these criteria but meetingthe requirements for a B.Sc. Medicinal & Biological Chemistry with an assessed year in industry degree will be awarded a B.Sc. degree.Its classification will be based on their performance in years two and three as described below. Student failing to meet the requirementsfor the B.Sc. degree will be awarded a diploma or certificate as set out in the University Quality ManualDegree Information:
<b>For the B.Sc. degree</b><br>In the second and third year, the modules marks are used to calculate the overall degree average. Marks for the second and third yearare weighted 30%:70% respectively toward the final degree mark and this is calculated using the arithmetic model, 'model 1' asdescribed in the University Quality Manual.<br><b>For the M.Sci. degree</b><br>
In the second, third and fourth year, module marks are used to calculate the overall degree average. Marks for the second third andfourth year are weighted 25%:25%:50% respectively toward the final degree mark and this is calculated using the arithmetic model,'model 1' as described in the University Quality Manual.<br>In this model BSc and MSci Honours degrees are awarded according to the following criteria:<br>Degree Class Ist IIi IIii III<br>Overall mark 70-100% 60-69% 50-59% 40-49%
<br><br>Students at a borderline of a degree class (see University guidelines in the Quality Manual) have their work scrutinised by the ExternalExaminer and may be given an oral examination in order to determine if they merit being awarded a higher degree classification.<br>Borderline marks are as follows:<br>

Section B. General Information
Educational Aims
In response to the demand for graduates with expertise in a range of scientific disciplines the Natural Sciences degree has beendesigned to allow students to study a blend of subjects from the biological, physical and social sciences. The Natural Sciencesdegree aims to:
Encourage the development of an enquiring, open-minded and creative attitude towards science that will facilitatelifelong learning.Provide a structured yet flexible multidisciplinary programme which allows students to tailor their programme of study totheir own specific interests and career aspirations.Provide a research-led teaching and learning programme which facilitates progressive learning towards research frontiersthrough learning underlying principles, defining concepts, theories & methods, and understanding current knowledge.
Develop students ability to think logically and critically and apply knowledge competently across different fields in amultidisciplinary context.Develop the wider process skills of information technology, communication, problem solving, teamwork and time/taskmanagement.
Outline Description of Course
The Natural Science Degree offers a challenging and diverse blend of science subjects which allows the flexibility to pursue arange of topics that match students' interests. Subject material is drawn from the Schools of Archaeology, Biology, BiomedicalSciences, Biosciences, Chemistry, Geography, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy and Psychology and is chosen to providestudents with a grounding in science that is suited to meet the intellectual and practical challenges of the 21st century. Thisdegree is particularly suited to students with an aptitude for science who would like to keep their career options open.<br><br>The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on credits; for a BSc Natural Science degree 360credits are required, 120 in each year, usually with 60 each semester. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters(Autumn and Spring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2 and 3 are termed Qualifying, Part I and PartII.<br><br>During the qualifying year of the course each student studies a specific pathway from a selection of 14 and studies 40 creditsfrom each strand on the pathway. In Part I students drop one strand from their year 1 pathway and study 60 credits from theother two strands. Part II allows students to carry on studying the same two strands taking a further 60 credits from each.
The Natural Sciences degree allows students to gain expertise in a range of scientific subjects as well as an understanding of theinterdisciplinary nature of current scientific study. It also enables students to tailor their degree to their own interests andaptitudes through both pathway choice and optional modules during the degree. <br><br>
Because of the compound nature of the degree students will be able to gain a greater range of transferable and professionalskills through studying multiple subjects and on completion, will have the expertise and skills required for a wide range careersin the scientific field.<br><br>
The idea of Natural Sciences is that students initially study a broader range of subjects and gradually specialise as the degreeprogresses first to 2 subjects and finally if they are continuing with the fourth year to 1. It allows student to continue with 3 oftheir subjects studied at A level (or 2 and pick up a new subject) and deciding what they wish to specialise in after they haveseen what is on offer at degree level.

Progression Information:
This programme will comply with the University Regulations for Undergraduate Courseshttp://www.nottingham.ac.uk/quality-manual/study-regulations/undergraduate-regulations.htm. <br<br>
Please note carefully: qualifying modules are non-compensatable. However compensation will be allowed, in line with regulation 10, formodules in the strand not to be taken forward. <br><br>
Compensation may be applied to Part I and Part II modules in line with Regulation 10 providing there are no more than 20 credits offailed modules in each strand. <br>Degree Information:
Degree requirements are as indicated above in the approved course of study and as per the University Regulations.<br><br>
Information on the marking criteria used by each strand can be found in the Course and Module Handbooks. These criteria will providestudents with clear guidance on the performance required to obtain marks at various levels (e.g. 70%+, 60-69, 50-59,40-49).<br><br>
In arriving at final degree classifications the Board of Examiners shall apply the follow percentage weightings to marks from the specifiedstage and the indicated calculation method: Initial classification is on the basis of an average of all marks (weighted as above), asfollows: 70%-100 First class 60%-69 Second class, division I 50%-59 Second class, division II 40%-49 Third class 0%-39 Fail.<br><br>
Borderlines: Candidates with an average of 69, 59, 49 or 39 are normally promoted to Classes I, II.1, II.2 and III (as appropriate) if theyhave 120 credits' worth of marks in higher classes spread over Parts I and II or 70 credits' worth of marks in higher classes solely in PartII. <br>

Transferable/Key Skills
D1. Develop effective strategies for study, including the use of library, human and electronic sources of information.
D2. Communicate with clarity about their subject appropriately to a variety of audiences in written, verbal, graphical and visual fo
D3. Manage and manipulate numerical data.
D4. Make effective use of general IT tools for acquiring, processing, and presenting information.
D5. Work effectively, both independently and, where appropriate, as a member of a team.
D6. Organise and manage working time, schedule tasks and meet of deadlines.
D7. Reflect on and assess their own progress, strengths and weaknesses.
Teaching and learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. In the early years of the course much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by practical classes and fieldwork,tutorials, active problem-solving classes and seminars. While lectures and practical classes still play an important role as the courseprogresses through Parts I and II, a significant role is also played by self-directed study in these years. <br><br>
Throughout the programme learning is enhanced by the production of written work, small group and one-to-one discussions and readingof supplementary literature to support their classes. Practical skills are attained through a mixture of practical classes and field workdepending on the specific discipline studied. <br><br>
The majority of transferable skills are communicated to students as an additive consequence of knowledge acquired in other modules,particularly in early years, and students are then able to practice and develop these skills in later modules.<br><br>
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment methods are of three main types; formal timed University examinations, coursework-type assignments including writtenreports, essays and poster presentations, and continuous assessment (mainly for practical work).
Assessment for all sections if summarised

Educational Aims
In response to the demand for graduates with expertise in a range of scientific disciplines the Natural Sciences degree has beendesigned to allow students to study a blend of subjects from the biological, physical and social sciences. The Natural Sciencesdegree aims to:
Encourage the development of an enquiring, open-minded and creative attitude towards science that will facilitatelifelong learning.Provide a structured yet flexible multidisciplinary programme which allows students to tailor their programme of study totheir own specific interests and career aspirations.Provide a research-led teaching and learning programme which facilitates progressive learning towards research frontiersthrough learning underlying principles, defining concepts, theories and methods, and understanding current knowledge.Develop students ability to think logically and critically and apply knowledge competently across different fields in amultidisciplinary context.Develop the wider process skills of information technology, communication, problem solving, teamwork and time/taskmanagement.Develop transferable skills through completion of independent research project and oral presentation of researchmaterial.
Outline Description of Course
The Natural Sciences Degree offers a challenging and diverse blend of science subjects which allows the flexibility to pursue arange of topics that match students' interests. Subject material is drawn from the Schools of Archaeology, Biology, BiomedicalSciences, Biosciences, Chemistry, Geography, Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy and Psychology and is chosen to providestudents with a grounding in science that is suited to meet the intellectual and practical challenges of the 21st century. Thisdegree is particularly suited to students with an aptitude for science who would like to keep their career options open.<br><br>The teaching is provided via a modular system, with the degree being based on credits; for an MSci Natural Science degree 480credits are required, 120 in each year, usually with 60 each semester. The academic teaching year is based on two Semesters(Autumn and Spring), delivered over a three-term system, and years 1, 2, 3 and 4 are termed Qualifying, Part I, Part II and PartIII.<br><br>During the qualifying year of the course each student studies a specific pathway from a selection of 14 and studies 40 creditsfrom each strand on the pathway. In Part I students drop one strand and continue to study 60 credits from the other twostrands from their first year. Part II allows students to carry on studying the same two strands taking a further 60 credits fromeach. Part III gives students the opportunity to specialise in one of the strands they have been studying and take a full 120credits from this subject including a substantial research project. <br><br>The idea of Natural Sciences is that students initially study a broader range of subjects and gradually specialise as the degreeprogresses first to 2 subjects and finally if they are continuing with the fourth year to 1. It allows student to continue with 3 oftheir subjects studied at A level (or 2 and pick up a new subject) and deciding what they wish to specialise in after they haveseen what is on offer at degree level.

The Natural Sciences degree allows students to gain expertise in a range of scientific subjects as well as an understanding of theinterdisciplinary nature of current scientific study. It also enables students to tailor their degree to their own interests andaptitudes through both pathway choice and optional modules during the degree. <br><br>
Because of the compound nature of the degree students will be able to gain a greater range of transferable and professionalskills through studying multiple subjects and on completion, will have the expertise and skills required for a wide range careersin the scientific field. In addition students will gain the skills needed for a successful research career through the completion of aself-led interdisciplinary research project in their final year.

D8. Undertake independent/self-directed study/learning to achieve consistent, proficient and sustained attainment.
Teaching and learning methods and strategies are matched as appropriate to the material to be delivered and to the experience of thestudents. In the early years of the course much of the teaching is done via lectures, complemented by practical classes and fieldwork,tutorials, active problem-solving classes and seminars. While lectures and practical classes still play an important role as the courseprogresses through Parts I and II, a significant role is also played by self-directed study in these years. <br><br>
Throughout the programme learning is enhanced by the production of written work, small group and one-to-one discussions and readingof supplementary literature to support their classes. Practical skills are attained through a mixture of practical classes and field workdepending on the specific discipline studied. <br><br>
The majority of transferable skills are communicated to students as an additive consequence of knowledge acquired in other modules,particularly in early years, and students are then able to practice and develop these skills in later modules. <br><br>
During Part III students will still acquire some knowledge through methods employed in earlier years, however, a significant proportionwill be derived from their final year project. The project encourages student to independently practice many of the discipline specific andtransferable skills acquired during the programme.
Teaching and Learning for all sections if summarised
Assessment methods are of three main types; formal timed University examinations, coursework-type assignments including writtenreports, essays and poster presentations, and continuous assessment (mainly for practical work).
