- Students can choose to explore the breadth of organismal biological sciences or specialise in an area that most interests them within three pathways of Evolutionary biology, Plant and crop science and Biodiversity and conservation.
- Students will conduct an Independent Research Project, spending three months researching an area within the biological sciences that matches their future career aspirations, under the supervision of one of the world-leading researchers.
- Students could select field-based, lab-based or complete a computational data-driven project which will give them an opportunity to apply the subject-specific knowledge and analytical skills that they have developed throughout the degree as well as developing new skills in the use of cutting-edge research methods.
