In the first year, all students study core biology modules, giving you a strong foundation in the subject.
In later stages, you will have a choice of specialist topics, many of which are linked to our research expertise, such as:
- molecular biology, genomics and development
- plant-animal interactions
- biodiversity and conservation
Lab and field-based sessions equip you with the scientific skills required by professional biologists.
You gain practical experience through a species identification course, and a choice between an intensive project-based field course or laboratory workshop examining the application of molecular techniques.
