BSc - Bachelor of Science
University of Bristol
Full Time
SEP-25
4 years
This four-year degree is similar to BSc Medical Microbiology but gives you the opportunity to gain valuable experience of medical microbiology in commercial or government research as an employee during your third year. This may be in a biotech or pharmaceutical company or a research institute.
Entry to the Study in Industry course is by transfer after you have secured a placement. Applications are made during the second year.
Our students are very well equipped to secure placements, in part because of their extensive practical experience during the first and second year. Our eBiolabs dynamic laboratory manual is available to help students prepare for practical laboratory sessions.
