New teaching laboratories have been fitted out a cost of £1.7 million to create superb state-of-the-art teaching facilities in which we can provide our students with direct ‘hands on' experience of biology.

Kitted out with world-beating equipment, the new interactive lab has workstations for up to 160 students. Each workstation has a high definition plasma screen enabling students to view live or recorded material from any portable device within the lab, such as digital microscope cameras or laptop computers.
