Biology

Course summary

Biology is a fascinating natural science that aims to understand how animals and organisms work – by studying the largest mammal to the smallest microbe. It is an excellent subject to study in its own right and can lead to research into animals, plants and microscopic organisms, as well as their environment and how they develop and live. It is also very useful for careers in medicine, the life sciences, environmental science, sports, engineering and the food industry, as well careers in policing and emergency services.
