• All Biotechnology and Biochemistry students follow the same core modules for the first two years, including biological chemistry, molecular biology, integrative cell biology and genes and genomics. This gives a solid grounding in the fundamental topics and prepares for advanced study.
  • Between the second and third years of the degree, students will have the chance to enhance experience and knowledge by completing an integrated, 12-month placement in industry or a research organisation. This can be in a variety of areas, such as medical research, conservation biology, marine biology or the pharmaceutical industry.
