University operates a modular system in which students will study six modules each year. The Biological Sciences BSc (Hons) three-year degree course has been designed to allow students more choice between modules in each successive year so that they can follow specialized routes within Biological Sciences, or address specific areas of interest, as their progress.
Recommended module combinations (“routes”) to allow various themes of specialization are available, although these still allow choice at each level of the course. We have specified recommended routes corresponding to the following subject areas:
- Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
- Biomedical Science
- Cell Biology
- Plant Science
- Genetics
- Ecology and Environmental Science.
