INTERDISCIPLINARY DEGREES LIBERAL ARTS AND NATURAL SCIENCES
INTERDISCIPLINARY DEGREES:
LIBERAL ARTS AND NATURAL
SCIENCES
These inspiring new degrees build upon
Keele’s founding commitment to a broad
education which encourages our students
to look beyond their own subjects and
fields. These flexible programmes allow
students to choose pathways which
reflect their interests and which enable
them to develop a range of disciplinary
and interdisciplinary skills.
The Grand Challenges
programme is at the heart
of these innovative courses
and here the Liberal Arts
and Natural Sciences students
come together at the Institute
at Keele Hall, the former
stately home on our beautiful
green campus.
Stimulated by the
interdisciplinary approaches
offered in the Grand
Challenges lectures,students
work in their joint learning
sets to explore their ideas
and generate fresh thinking
and novel responses to
today’s urgent questions.
Natural Sciences students choose from a range of physical sciences, biology and geosciences
