O que eu aprenderei?
Biological Sciences encompasses many aspects of the biosciences, from molecules to ecosystems and includes exploration of: Biological diversity, systematics and conservation, Cell and tissue structure, function and physiology, Ecology and behaviour, Form and function of microorganisms, protists, fungi, plants and animals, and Genetics and mechanisms and pathways of evolution. The BSc Biological Sciences with Professional Studies enables students to gain an understanding of Structure, function, and interactions of microorganisms, protists, fungi, plants and animals. Concepts and theories from the molecular and cellular levels through to whole-organism and ecosystems are also taught. Students will gain practical laboratory skills to help them investigate and manipulate biological material including relevant physical, chemical and biological measurements and their application in a laboratory and research project setting.

It would be an advantage to have studied Chemistry beyond GCSE level. A maximum of one BTEC/OCR Single Award or AQA Extended Certificate will be accepted as part of an applicant's portfolio of qualifications with a Distinction* being equated to a grade A at A-level and a Distinction being equated to a grade B at A-level. Please note that a BTEC/OCR Single Award or AQA Extended Certificate will not be accepted in lieu of A-level Biology or A-level Chemistry. A BTEC/OCR Single Award or AQA Extended Certificate will be considered on an individual basis in lieu of the second science subject; International Baccalerate Diploma: 32 points overall including 6,5,5 at Higher Level including Biology and Chemistry (preferred) or Mathematics or Physics or Geography + GCSE Chemistry grade C/4 or GCSE Double Award Science grades CC/4,4 + GCSE Mathematics grade C/4, OR, 33 points overall including 6,5,5 at Higher Level including Biology + GCSE Chemistry grade C/4 or GCSE Double Award Science grades CC/4,4 + GCSE Mathematics grade C/4, If not offered at Higher Level/GCSE then Standard Level grade 4 in Chemistry and Mathematics would be accepted; BTEC: QCF Level 3 BTEC Extended Diploma (180 credits), with 100 credits at Distinction grade and 80 credits at Merit grade + GCSE Biology and Chemistry grade C/4 or GCSE Double Award Science grades CC/4,4 + GCSE Mathematics grade C/4. RQF Level 3 BTEC National Extended Diploma (1080 Guided Learning Hours (GLH)), with at least 540 GLH at Distinction grade (minimum 240 GLH to be externally assessed) and 540 GLH at Merit grade + GCSE Biology and Chemistry grade C/4 or GCSE Double Award Science grades CC/4,4 + GCSE Mathematics grade C/4. For the RQF Level 3 BTEC National Extended Diploma, applicants must have Distinction grades in four specified units to include:, Principles of Applied Science I, Principles of Applied Science II, and two from the following:, Biological Molecules & Metabolic Pathways, Genetics & Genetic Engineering, Diseases and Infections, Microbiology & Microbiological Techniques, Extended/National Extended Diploma must be relevant; Graduate: A minimum of a 2:2 Honours Degree, provided any subject requirements are also met.
