Course Overview

This joint honours degree combines two complementary and overlapping disciplines, giving you in-depth knowledge of the advanced molecular biology techniques and research which are the basis for understanding all life forms. Molecular biology is a growing subject that is making an enormous impact in many scientific areas, including studying and treating many human diseases, pharmaceutical development, and the complex relationships between our environment and ourselves. You will learn about the genetic processes within living organisms and study how cells work at the sub-cellular and molecular levels, gaining an in-depth understanding of the biochemical function of living organisms, from bacteria to plants, animals, and humans. You will develop excellent project management skills and learn to design experiments and plan work programs.
