BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES




        CRITICAL-THINKING • PROBLEM-SOLVING • SCIENCE-SHAPING


        We are serious about science, and we are proud to have contributed to some important advances
        in the history of human and animal medicine, animal welfare, disease control and evolution.
        As a small University, we can offer you the chance to get unrivalled practical lab time to learn
        and develop your hands-on scientific skills. Our world-renowned experts and exciting research
        opportunities will give you the learning experience you need to take your knowledge to the
        highest level and to help shape the future of science. You will have the chance to undertake a
        6-week research project in your second year, and a 12-week research project in your third year,
        with plenty of one-to-one support with your tutors and course director. To complete your research
        experience, choose an MSci course, which offers you the unique opportunity of spending your
        entire final year on your own research project.


        Our Biological Sciences courses follow a ‘pathway’ approach. This means that in your first year, you
        study a broad range of modules providing you with a fundamental understanding of biosciences. As you
        progress through your course, additional study options become available to you, culminating in a final
        year investigative project. You will be able to choose from a wide variety of topics that are aligned to the
        research interests of the college’s academic staff.


        All our BSc and MSci Biosciences courses are also offered with an additional placement year after your
        second year of study.
