The BSc Biology with Science and Society course offers students the chance to study both the biological sciences and their contemporary social context, combining science, the humanities and social sciences in a single course. Students will explore the changing social, ethical and political dimension of the biological sciences while also developing research, writing and communication skills. The staffs are from the History of Science, Technology and Medicine department, whose specialisms range from the critical history and social implications of genetics to evolutionary theory, biomedical sciences and modern medical practice. The course features science media projects where students will produce a portfolio of communication materials that could include a scientific article or a podcast. There are also science communication placements through the industrial/professional experience option , where students could spend a year working in an organisation that communicates science, such as a medical writing company or a museum.
