Presentation

If you actively experience contact with nature and observe the landscape around you with attention and curiosity, this is the Degree programme for you! The Bachelor's Degree Programme in Natural Sciences trains professional naturalists. It offers a modern and comprehensive cultural education oriented towards a systemic view of the natural environment, described and interpreted through the application of the scientific method. The Bachelor's Degree in Natural Sciences prepares students for surveying, classifying and interpreting the abiotic and biotic components of natural ecosystems and provides the scientific basis for formulating proposals for the management, conservation and restoration of natural systems.

Programme contents

The Bachelor's Degree Programme in Natural Sciences offers an inspiring atmosphere with an excellent teacher/student ratio. The main purpose is to train graduates to operate in the complex reality of natural environments and climate change, where several factors interact, through a profile with interdisciplinary knowledge and skills. The description of biotic and abiotic components, their interactions, and the understanding of the ecosystem processes are investigated in order to learn from the past, interpret the present and design a sustainable future. Internships in parks, nature reserves, museums, educational centres or in organisations involved in the conservation of natural assets offer students the opportunity to enter the world of work.

Job opportunities

The degree in natural sciences prepares access to professional fields such as environmental control technicians, agronomy and forestry technicians, specialised guides and escorts, teachers in vocational training and assimilated, museum and library technicians and assimilated. It allows students to register in professional orders and to exercise the relative professions: order of architects, planners, landscape architects and conservators, Section B - planning sector (title of junior planner); order of biologists, Section B (title of junior biologist), Register of Graduate Agro-Technicians and Agricultural Surveyors. The degree in Natural Sciences allows access, with no educational debits, to the recently established UNIMORE Master's Degree in Didactics and Communication of Sciences (LM-60), which represents a consistent continuation of the three-year degree programme, as well as other science and technology-related Master's degrees. It also allows access to first level university masters.
