Course summary

With a focus on learning outside the classroom – you can expect a variety of field trips and opportunities, and an exciting lecture series – Biology in Action.

A Biology qualification can lead to a variety of degree paths, such as Medicine, Environmental Science, Physiotherapy and Biomedical Sciences. And even if you decide not to continue with Biology at a higher level, you will learn valuable skills that you can apply to almost any degree or career choice. You’ll study many characteristics of living organisms, including biological molecules, cells, physiology, genetics and the environment.
