Description:

Interested in chemistry and physics and want to study a bachelor at one of the leading universities? In the bachelor's programme Soil, Water, Atmosphere you learn about hydrology, meteorology, chemistry, geography and soil science. Would you like to work on solutions to environmental issues from a natural science perspective? Then join the ‘Wageningen earth sciences programme’: the BSc Soil, Water, Atmosphere!

What are the unique programme aspects?

  • Hydrology, meteorology and soil science brought together in one Bachelor of Science.
  • Working to solve environmental problems using insights from physics, mathematics, chemistry and biology.
  • Focus on issues such as climate change, flooding, drought and erosion from a natural science perspective.

Courses in Soil, Water and Atmosphere

The degree programme opens with introductory subjects in the field of Soil, Water and Atmosphere, in which students learn about the mutual interconnectedness between these aspects. Additional subjects in mathematics, physics, chemistry and ecology help to flesh out the basic grounding necessary for the programme. In the first year especially, students will take classes with their fellows from other programmes, particularly Environmental Science and International Land and Water Management.

The second year takes a more in-depth look at the subject matter, through subjects such as meteorology, water quantity and quality, soil quality and the Earth system, and concludes with practical fieldwork assignments in which students integrate and apply what they have learned.

Third-year students can choose whether to generalise or specialise (i.e., via breadth or depth subjects). For example, would you rather learn about all three domains (soil, water and atmosphere), or would you prefer to concentrate on a single domain? Are your favourite subjects chemical or biological in nature, or do you feel more attracted to physics and mathematics? How about using your electives for something completely different (such as a minor from a different field), or to spend some time studying abroad? The choice is yours!
