MBiolSci Anatomy and Human Biology
Course Overview
This program provides a comprehensive exploration of human anatomy and biology, preparing students for advanced study in medicine and allied health fields or for careers in the bioscience and pharmaceutical industries. The four-year MBiolSci degree builds upon the foundational BSc with an enhanced final year focused on developing advanced research skills through a significant project and specialized modules.
Key Program Highlights
- Hands-on human dissection in a dedicated, state-of-the-art anatomy facility
- Direct preparation for competitive graduate-entry programs in Medicine, Dentistry, and Physiotherapy
- Fourth-year research project working within an active research team
- Opportunities for summer research internships or industry placements
- Teaching from leading scientists in neuroscience, evolution, and developmental biology
