Course summary

Our BSc Biological Sciences with Foundation course is ideal for anyone who is passionate about all aspects of biology, and can be tailored to match your interests. This four-year programme includes a year of foundational study that leads directly into the three-year course. The majority of modules in our biological sciences course are optional, giving you the opportunity to cover a broad range of topics or specialise in a particular area such as ecology and wildlife or human biology. Within environmental biology, you'll develop an understanding of ecology, conservation biology and humankind's impact on biodiversity. Within biomedical subjects, you can focus on topics such as human physiology and the basis of disease. During your final year, you'll have the chance to spend 11 weeks working on an original research project using our cutting edge facilities and equipment.The course has a strong practical element, providing you with valuable experience of laboratory work and an opportunity to learn key molecular genetic and cell biology techniques.For more information, please visit our course page: https://www.reading.ac.uk/ready-to-study/study/subject-area/biological-sciences-ug/bsc-biological-sciences-with-foundation
