Why study a BSc(Tech)?

The BSc(Tech) is a flexible degree, designed to provide you with the necessary practical experience to stand out among other science graduates.

It is internationally recognised, meaning you can find work anywhere in the world. A high percentage of graduates actively seeking employment find it within six months of graduating.

Earth Sciences

The demand for Earth Sciences experts is rising as we seek to manage soil, water, minerals, energy, coastal/marine resources, and understand natural hazards like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, and volcanic eruptions.

Why study Earth Sciences?

The University of Waikato is uniquely placed to offer a thorough grounding in all aspects of the Earth Sciences. We are situated close to both North Island coasts, a short drive from the active Taupo Volcanic Zone, at the heart of the richest New Zealand farming region, and have New Zealand's longest river on our doorstep.

We are a leader in teaching and research related to the Earth’s environment, and offer you a learning experience that goes beyond the laboratory and lecture room - and out into the world.
