Biological sciences form the basis of many new areas of science and technology. They are the foundation of understanding of a diverse range of subjects – from evolution, genetics and diversity to medicine, drug and human development.
On this course, students can choose to study human, medical or genetics and molecular biology. Practical work includes a laboratory and/or field-based project, a data project or a systematic review. Project work might be based in a laboratory or organisation outside the University. Students will gain the knowledge, techniques and skills they need to boost their employability, ready for when they graduate.
This degree is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology (RSB). Once students graduate, they'll receive one year's free membership, helping them to network and keep them up to date with developments in life sciences. This degree can lead to careers in the pharmaceutical, medical, food, biotech and veterinary industries, as well as teaching and research.
