A bachelor’s degree in Science at these universities is an undergraduate path for students who want a first degree rather than a diploma or a master’s. It suits applicants planning to build a broad science base before moving into a field-specific career or further study.

The universities are all public. Several are in major urban settings, while others are in smaller regional locations, so location is one of the practical differences to weigh alongside access, cost of living, and daily commute. Fees are published for some institutions and not for others, so compare the price information you can verify before choosing.

Before applying, confirm the exact programme name, tuition, extra charges, admission requirements, and application deadline with the university. Also check the campus location, because that can affect housing and travel, and make sure the science subject you want is available at the institution you choose.
