Biological Sciences explores the study of living organisms, covering everything from the interactions of animals in their environment to how genes are expressed.We offer 12 different subject areas and you will specialise in one of these as you progress through your studies.In your first two years of study, your compulsory courses will cover aspects of all 12 subject areas we offer. This means that you will be able to choose a programme based on your experiences and what interests you.We usually consider a maximum of two applications to programmes in the College of Science and Engineering as this helps ensure we make offers to as many students as possible.However, if you are applying to our Biological Sciences programmes you should only select one programme within this subject area. You can use your second application for any other Science and Engineering programmes.
