• Objectives
  This course examines many key topics in modern biology, from cell and molecular biology, anatomy and physiology of organisms to microbiology, genetics and ecology. Based around Biochemistry, Ecology, Microbiology and Physiology, this degree allows you to specialise in areas that interest you, or to take a more broad-based course. The wider social and ethical implications of advances in contemporary biological science are also addressed.
• Entry requirements
