Biological Sciences (4 Years)

The Biological Sciences (4 Years) programme provides an extended and in-depth education in modern biological sciences, allowing students to develop a strong scientific foundation alongside advanced research and analytical skills. The additional year offers greater academic flexibility, enhanced specialisation opportunities, and deeper engagement with scientific inquiry.

Throughout the programme, students study core biological disciplines such as cell and molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, microbiology, ecology, evolution, and physiology. Teaching combines theoretical learning with laboratory-based practical work and, where relevant, field studies, enabling students to gain hands-on experience using contemporary scientific techniques and methodologies.

The four-year structure allows students to explore specialised areas of interest in greater depth and to develop advanced research skills, often through extended research projects or additional academic training. The programme emphasises critical thinking, data analysis, and scientific communication, preparing students to evaluate complex biological problems and contribute to scientific understanding.

Graduates of the Biological Sciences (4 Years) programme are well prepared for careers in biological and biomedical research, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, environmental science, healthcare, and related life science industries, as well as for further postgraduate study. This degree is ideal for students seeking a broad yet flexible biological sciences education with enhanced academic and professional development.
