A warm welcome to all prospective undergraduate students at the School of Biological Sciences. The following pages give comprehensive details of all our undergraduate degrees along with some more general information which we hope will be useful in helping you choose the right course.
We now offer 20 different full-time undergraduate degree programmes (plus three part-time degrees) in a wide range of subjects. Approximately 150 new undergraduates join us each year to study Biological Sciences (including a range of specialised programmes), Biomedicine, Biochemistry and Ecology.
Our students also have the opportunity of studying abroad for a year in either Europe, North America or Australasia, or spending a year in industry. Indeed we are one of a very few departments in the UK able to offer such a comprehensive spectrum of biology-related degree programmes.
Two of the distinguishing features of the degree courses we offer are excellence and choice. You are able to choose from a large number of degree programmes composed of a wide range of teaching modules. Lectures and seminars introduce the latest ideas and understanding of biology, and you will gain a thorough training in modern experimental methodology through hands-on practical or fieldwork sessions.
Scholarships for 2011
The Faculty of Science is delighted to announce 33 £1000 scholarships for undergraduate students starting in September 2011, as part of the Eliahou Dangoor Scholarship Scheme.
