BSc (Hons) Evolutionary Biology
Evolutionary Biology is a fast growing area of study, utilising ever-more sophisticated technology to unravel the history of life on earth. On our BSc Evolutionary Biology you will utilise our cutting-edge facilities to develop advanced knowledge in this rapidly developing field, which encompasses genetics, animal behaviour and psychology, and examine evolution from many perspectives – from the smallest building blocks of life to entire ecosystems.As a fast growing area of study, it is led by some of the UK’s foremost internationally-recognised, research active staff in the Centre for Ecology and Conservation on our Penryn Campus in Cornwall. The Centre hosts a large and thriving group of scientists who work at the cutting edge of research on evolutionarily informed organismal biology and run research projects across the globe, from Uganda to Australia. The programme utilises expertise in the Centre to provide you with the skills, concepts and experience to understand all aspects of modern evolutionary biology. The programme encourages an interdisciplinary approach and you will be exposed to a wide range of theoretical and practical techniques used to study evolutionary biology.Why study Evolutionary Biology at the University of Exeter?•led by some of the UK’s foremost evolutionary biologists studying topics from the evolution of sex and sexes, to the extinction of species•undertake challenging research projects at the cutting edge of your field•work with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment•the only degree in the UK dedicated specifically to Evolutionary Biology•graduate with outstanding employment prospects•four year programme with study abroad available•MSci four year programme available
