The degree is designed to place science in context and to explore the applications of science in society. Graduates will have a deep understanding of at least one area of science and also be able to work effectively in their non-science discipline. This cross-disciplinary degree gives graduates the skills to work as knowledge brokers in business, government, education or science.
