The modular course programme allows you to explore the full spectrum of biology, from ecosystems and organisms to molecular biology, keeping either a broad perspective or focussing on a narrowly defined area. It offers the opportunity to combine an academic degree course with a full year of professional training in a setting outside the University. The course builds on the content and structure of the corresponding 3-year BSc Biological Sciences course. Its key feature is the placement between second and final year, while you have access to all modules available in the corresponding 3-year course.
