Course overview In this course you unlock your potential with our Biosciences PhD, where you'll explore cutting-edge research in human, animal, plant, microbial, cell, and molecular biology guided by top experts in one of the UK's leading Biosciences schools. Course structure Research in the School of Biosciences centres around four interlinked groupings, which focus on multi and interdisciplinary research. Each theme represents areas of research excellence in human, animal, plant, microbial, cell and molecular biology, and these areas integrate with systems biology and structural biology. Research students at the School are members of the Biosciences Graduate Research School, and receive training in many generic and transferable skills in addition to those that are specific to their research discipline. We give special emphasis to postgraduate student research training, including regular monitoring of progress and the provision of an induction programme and short courses in core and specialised techniques.
You will need to have, or expect to achieve, a 2:1 Honours degree or equivalent, or a postgraduate Master's degree, in a relevant subject.
