Natural sciences help us to understand the inner and outer workings of our world. Although nature’s laws might place some restrictions on human existence, they also offer a myriad of possibilities for sustainable development, whether in terms of the economy, society or environment. The study of natural sciences will help broaden your perspective, while also providing you with an analytical and scientific approach to thinking. As a natural scientist, you are curious and critical by nature, fascinated by the physical world we live in. Nature’s phenomena and patterns constantly pose new questions for you to find answers to.

You can be admitted to the main subjects Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Geology without knowledge of Swedish. Knowledge of English is then required. The studies consist of advanced courses within your main subject, where both theory and practical applications play important parts. Additionally, optional courses allow you to focus on the themes you find interesting. A close cooperation with the University of Turku allows you an even greater option of studies and courses to choose from.
