Biological Sciences (Biology) MBiol(Integrated Masters)

... United Kingdom
... University of Worcester

Course Overview

Biology is one of the most actively changing subjects in the sciences, with biologists constantly seeking solutions to the many challenges that shape our world. In our Biology degree, we engage with the subject at every level, from the molecular level through whole organisms and beyond to their relationships with each other and the wider environment.

The great thing about doing Biology is that you get to explore the whole of the subject in great detail. It means you have a wide choice when it comes to choosing your modules for the final year and especially choosing what kind of research project you want to take for your dissertation. So whether you fall in love with the subject at the biochemical level or whether your passion is about whole organisms and how they interact, Biology is for you.

If you have a passion for the subject doing a Masters's year to gain an MBiol qualification gives you the opportunity to explore the subject in greater detail by undertaking an extensive research project which can be used to gain a job at a higher entry-level or help towards entry to Ph.D. programs.

On our Biology master's, the first three years will follow the same modules as students on the BSc (Hons) course. These offer excellent practical hands-on experience in these areas.

Studying biology prepares you for a number of degree paths including scientific research within government, industry, or medical institutions, medical and laboratory sales, nature conservation, a range of public sector workers, and a teaching career.

It is becoming increasingly difficult for graduates to obtain Ph.D. positions with only a BSc (Hons) degree. Graduates with an Integrated Masters's degree would have significant additional research expertise that would enable them to progress straight to an MPhil/Ph.D. position. There is an increasing need for graduates in the UK economy as skilled researchers for UK PLC. Such graduates have much to offer within the general area of applied biological research but also, critically, to drive forward the innovation that is vital for the UK economy.
