BSc (Hons) Biological Sciences (Cell and Molecular) will provide you with the knowledge and subject-specific skills relevant to the practice of modern biochemistry, and cell and molecular biology. You’ll gain a thorough understanding of the foundations of biochemistry, and cell and molecular biology, integrating concepts of related areas such as physiology, microbiology, biotechnology, and genetics.  

You’ll develop your critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and problem-solving skills. You’ll learn about scientific concepts, evaluate research findings, and present innovative solutions to complex biological problems using a range of media. You’ll work independently and collaboratively, and engage in group projects, scientific discussions, and research initiatives.  
 
Hands-on laboratory work is prominent throughout the degree, and you’ll have access to our state-of-the-art labs where you can put theoretical knowledge into practice. This will help you gain valuable skills in interpreting and analysing scientific data.  
 
As well as building your skills in biological sciences, you’ll develop sought after soft skills, such as problem-solving, communication skills, and practical presentation skills. You’ll also understand the vital role of a biologist across a range of professional fields including research and development, quality assurance, environmental monitoring, and public health.  

This industry-focused degree will ensure you have the understanding, knowledge, skills, and personal qualities required to understand the impact that biochemistry, and cell and molecular biology has on our daily lives, and you’ll become a confident graduate ready to undertake a wide range of careers within the scientific or other employment sectors.
