Programme Structure

You will be given a general introduction to all aspects of modern biology and encouraged to acquire general scientific skills. In semester 1, you will develop your knowledge of fundamental aspects of biology. In semester 2, you will be introduced to specialist subject areas according to your interests (eg animal biology; biomolecular sciences; human biology; infection biology). If you progress to Honours (years 3 and 4) you will develop an in-depth understanding of the principles of genetics and biomolecular science, including: classical foundation of genetics; the application of genetics to understand evolution, populations, biological function, and disease; molecular genetics using model organisms; and human genetics and how it impacts on disease, medicine, and the development of treatment for these diseases.
