Program Overview
If you have a natural curiosity about how living things function, then biological sciences will appeal to you. You will learn about how life works, at the molecular level, the cellular level and the level of the organism. From determining the molecular causes of medical conditions or producing effective treatments, to the development of environmental technologies for wastewater treatment, or optimising brewing processes, biological scientists have a key role to play in all areas of society.
Biology is an increasingly diverse area with a wide array of topics. Our understanding of molecules, cells and life is central to human society and progress. Within this option, you will have the opportunity to pursue the BSc in Biotechnology DC181, BSc in Genetics and Cell Biology DC168 or BSc in Bioprocessing from Year 2 onwards.
In your 1st year, you will develop your scientific skills and get a strong grounding in biochemistry, genetics, cell biology and microbiology. This will give you the opportunity to determine which areas of biological sciences appeal most to you, before choosing your preferred degree option at the end of Year 1, selecting from:
- BSc in Biotechnology
- BSc in Genetics & Cell Biology
- BSc in Bioprocessing
All students successfully passing Year 1 are guaranteed a place on one of the 3 programmes, but as the number of places in Year 2 of each course is limited, entry into a specific course will be on merit, based on performance in Year 1.
