The School of Natural Sciences welcome you to our postgraduate offer holder evening. This will be an opportunity to meet with your academics, tour the labs, engage with a taster lecture, have your questions answered and join for a networking opportunity at the end!
The School of Natural Sciences offers teaching and research in the areas of biological, chemical, earth and planetary sciences. We offer courses at all levels, from certificates to PhD study. You can choose from a wide range of subjects from planetary sciences, astrobiology, geology, analytical chemistry, biomedicine, bioinformatics, structural biology, microbiology, among other subjects. We offer a mixture of in-person, on-line and distance learning courses, so there is something for everyone.
Our academic staff, experts in their fields, are involved in active research projects. The range of topics is wide-ranging, built on a curiosity-driven interdisciplinary approach to make fundamental advances in our understanding of the natural world from single cells through to planetary systems.
Our students also have the chance to attend and participate in lecture series run through our collaborations with UCL: Astrobiology and Space Exploration (APEX) meetings, Earth Sciences seminar series, and the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology.
