The Bachelor of Science course normally requires three years full-time study or the equivalent in part-time on-campus or distance education study (usually about six years).
Two associated tagged BSc degrees, detailed separately, have particular career focuses in areas of strength in the School of Applied Sciences. BSc students may apply for entry to one of these tagged degrees at the end of their first year of studies. Alternatively, students may continue in the general BSc course, constructing their own study program within the flexible degree structure.
