Modules in this programme cover human health and wellbeing, physiology, infection, and the biology of molecules and cellular systems, including recent research breakthroughs related to vaccine development, neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic diseases (e.g. diabetes). Students will develop the research and analysis, presentation, communication, problem-solving and writing skills that are essential in all employment sectors. In the first year, this programme integrates core syllabus of biology, biochemistry and genetics which will form the basis for later specialisation. In the second and third years, core modules include molecular cell biology, human and animal physiology, immunology and epidemiology, infection and tropical diseases. Students may choose from a wide range of optional modules such as oncology or synthetic biology, or those covering areas outside science such as business or languages. The third year will be spent on a work placement, either in the UK or abroad, or on a study abroad programme. Students will complete a challenging full-time research project on an area of particular academic interest in the fourth year which may be lab-based or involve data analysis.
