This course is a well-rounded programme in the field of Biology it contains a number of optional modules at level 5 and 6 that allow you to select specialisms matched to your interest and career aspirations. The course intends to furnish you with the knowledge and skills to become an employable life science graduate in a range of areas including, but not limited to laboratory work, research, biotechnology, teaching, agriculture, bio-sustainability, human health, global health, scientific journalism, pharmacology, ecotoxicology, and sustainability many graduates from previous iterations of this programme also go on to further study at both masters and PhD level across the world. The course covers life from viruses and microbes through to plants, animals and humans and discusses how each of these co-exists and can be utilised and managed for the greater good. We believe that this programme generates skilled graduates that would be comfortable and competent in a wide range of jobs in the growing life science sector
