Bachelor of Science in Chemistry

About this programme

Chemistry is the science of matter and change. Chemistry at Otago is about making, measuring and understanding the world around us. You'll work in labs, learn modern techniques, and be taught by active researchers in a close-knit department. Fantastic facilities support hands-on learning alongside your theoretical studies.

Entry requirements

• International students need a secondary-school qualification recognised as equivalent to New Zealand University Entrance. Widely accepted qualifications include Cambridge International A-levels (typically at least 120 NZ Tariff points), the IB Diploma (minimum 24 points), and many recognised national qualifications assessed country-by-country. Applicants who do not meet direct entry can qualify through a foundation-year programme or one year of study at an institution of university standing. Some programmes require specific subjects, and a satisfactory level of English is required.
