MBiolSci Anatomy and Human Biology

University of Liverpool

This degree will suit you if you want a thorough understanding of the structure and function of the human body. Our BSc students are well prepared to compete for graduate entry into Medicine, Dentistry, Physician Associate studies, Radiotherapy, and Physiotherapy, for higher degrees in all areas of human biology, and for careers in anatomy, biological and medical science, the biotech, healthcare, and pharmaceutical industries, and in medical communications. The MBiolSci programme builds on the BSc experience by enhancing skills in research.

The MBiolSci is a four-year programme, in which students first follow the three-year BSc in Anatomy and Human Biology and then continue into a fourth year, subject to performance.

The fourth (Master’s) year aims at developing enhanced research and personal skills for students seeking a high-level career in research (eg studying for a PhD or working in industry) or those seeking to enhance their qualification. Students take advanced modules and will join a research team to undertake a significant research project. Students can also apply for a six-week summer research internship in the UK or overseas or apply to spend time working in industry or in other enterprises in the final year.

Programme in detail

Each year includes dissection of the human body, working in groups of typically five or six (subject to the availability of prepared cadavers) guided by a series of related lectures and practical sessions in the Human Anatomy Resource Centre, our dedicated anatomy facility.

Alongside this, lectures, tutorials, and seminars are given by top scientists in fields such as neuroscience, human evolution, vertebrate morphology, stem cell and developmental biology, musculoskeletal biology, and cardiovascular biology.
