Science degrees
The various branches of science are too extensive to treat in any detail, but in general it is true to say that for substantive scientific research work, the major employing departments such as the D.S.I.R.. the New Zealand Forest Service, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries usually seek first or upper-second-class Honours degrees and competition is keen. In these Departments there are fewer opportunities at bachelor level, although some occur in technician, library, editing and information areas.
