Named Route/Joint Honours Degrees
Students wishing to study for a joint honours degree in the sciences at Durham University take the named route in Natural Sciences whereby their degree is administered by the Natural Sciences programme (through the sub-dean of science) but the student will graduate with a subject-named joint honours degree, for example BSc Mathematics & Physics. A student in the example course would obtain a degree titled BSc Honours within the Natural Sciences programme in Mathematics and Physics.
Students are free to study more than two subjects in their first year, or to concentrate solely on their two chosen subjects in their first year. However, in subsequent years, joint honours students will study modules only from their chosen two subjects.
