• By studying Biology, you are choosing to study a subject that offers solutions and developments to social and ethical challenges. It is possibly the most actively changing and developing subject in the sciences, and has offered an advanced understanding of threats to human populations such as AIDS, as well as threats to conservation and habitats.
  • Course highlights:

    • Biology is a wide-ranging subject that Leeds is well equipped to deliver through one of the UK?s largest and most diverse biology teaching groups.
    • The degree is popular - for some it?s the breadth of the subject that appeals, for others it?s a path to specialisation.
    • The common first year provides you with a broad foundation as a scientist, flexibility, and the opportunity to specialise in your chosen area in Years 2, 3 and 4.
    • In each year you will choose modules from our specialist degrees across the biology area (Biology with Enterprise, Genetics, Ecology and Environmental Biology, and Zoology), allowing you to follow your own biological interests.
