This exciting four-year programme linking the arts, social sciences and sciences provides great flexibility and choice, offering an interdisciplinary approach incorporating both arts and sciences specialisms with the opportunity to learn a foreign language and spend a year at a university abroad. Students create a programme and study innovative modules to enhance the link between disciplines.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

The programme offers a wide combination of specialist modules from across UCL and an interdisciplinary Core taught by the BASc Department. The Core modules enable you to acquire the skills and concepts you will need to work effectively across multiple disciplines. They link traditional UCL subjects in new ways and explore the conceptual and methodological differences between arts, social science sand science subjects.

You will study a modern foreign language throughout your degree and may gain work experience through an internship chosen to integrate your studies with your future employment aspirations.

During your third year of study, you can choose to spend the year studying at one of our partner institutions, undertake a full year Traineeship in the country in which your Core language is spoken or split the year between studying and a Traineeship.

Possible internships include businesses, non-governmental organisations and charities. Our students have had internships with a wide range of employers including: Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Bloomberg, Amazon, Blackrock, the Ditchley Foundation, the Zoological Society of London and many more.

You will choose a major and a minor pathway on application. Your pathways determine the subjects in which you will specialise. We offer two arts pathways and two sciences pathways.

Cultures (Humanities and Arts): Anthropology, Creative Writing, Cultural Studies, Design and Visualisation, Drawing Methodology, Film and Documentary Film-Making, History, History of Art, Languages, Literature, Philosophy

Societies (Social Sciences): Archaeology, Economics, Geography, History, International Relations, Law, Management, Philosophy, Political Economy, Politics, Sociology

Health and Environment (Sciences): Anthropology, Biochemistry, Biological Sciences, Biomedicine, Environmental Sciences, Geography, Geology, Neuroscience, Pharmacology, Psychology

Sciences and Engineering (Sciences): Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth Sciences, Economics, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics

Upon successful completion of 360 credits, you will be awarded a BASc (Hons) in your chosen Arts and Sciences pathway.
