What it isEnvironmental Chemistry is the study of chemical processes that happen in nature and how human activity affects them — from water pollution to atmospheric reactions to soil contamination. Unlike a pure chemistry degree, it combines lab work with environmental science, so you learn both the chemistry itself and why it matters for ecosystems and human health. It suits people who want a science degree but care about real-world environmental problems rather than working only in industrial or research settings.You study chemistry alongside medical and biological sciences, learning how molecules, cells, and chemical processes work in living systems. This combines pure chemistry with applied health science rather than focusing only on one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding the chemical basis of medicine, pharmacology, or biochemistry without committing to a professional health program like medicine.Honours Science is a broad science degree where you choose your major from fields like biology, chemistry, environmental science, computer science, or archaeology. Unlike a general science program, an honours degree requires you to specialize in one subject and complete more advanced courses in that area. It suits students who want a strong grounding in science but haven't yet decided on one specific career path, or who want deeper knowledge in a particular field.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
