A master’s in Science usually suits applicants who already have a first degree and want advanced study, research preparation, or a route into specialist roles. In this group, the decision is about fit at postgraduate level rather than starting undergraduate study.

The public universities on this list are both in smaller university towns rather than a large city setting. Fee information is published for one of them, while fee information for the other is missing and should be confirmed with the university before applying.

Before you apply, verify the exact programme title, tuition, length of study, admission requirements, and start date. You should also confirm whether the science option you want is one of the 4 programmes available and whether the university you choose is the one that offers it.
