Studying the molecular and cellular aspects of life is at the heart of our Biological Sciences degree. Understanding how cells respond to and influence their environment drives the most exciting discoveries in molecular and cellular biology.How do mutations cause inherited disorders and cancer? How do viruses replicate within cells? What is the molecular basis of antibiotic resistance? During your degree, you’ll be taught by world-leading researchers at the forefront of tackling global challenges such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, ageing, antibiotic resistance and emerging viruses.Biological Sciences is our most flexible and interdisciplinary degree, which enables you to build a broad knowledge base in your first year, with opportunities to specialise in chosen themes in subsequent years of the course.This 3-year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, subject to suitable academic performance at the end of your 2nd year and availability. You would study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project.**Course highlights**:- Choose one of the following three themes to specialise in after your first year: molecular medicine, infection and disease or genome biology and disease.- Weekly research-focused practical classes in the first two year of your degree will provide extensive hands-on experience in the laboratory, with the option to experience working in a research lab in your final year.- Our teaching is research-led at every stage of your degree, ensuring that you engage with cutting-edge scientific developments and techniques from the start of your studies through to your final-year projects- A wide choice of research-led advanced topic lectures in your final year cover specialist topics in cell and molecular biology, exposing you to the latest techniques and cutting-edge research.- Amass unique and vital experience through an exciting industrial placement or study abroad opportunity.- Development of a range of transferable skills such as data analysis, interpretation and critical appraisal which will equip you for a wide range of career options when you graduate.- Extensive wellbeing and employability support from dedicated faculty teams.- Experience life and learning in a different country through our study abroad programme, where you'll gain fresh perspectives and develop skills valued by employers.- The ongoing expansion of biosciences creates varied employment prospects and career opportunities.
