Course summary

A deep academic understanding of life on earth is more important than ever. Studying living organisms in all their epic variety helps us to identify critical threats and major opportunities, from the smallest scale to the biggest. Our 4-year BSc Biology with an integrated foundation year is ideal for students who don't meet the necessary requirements to enter onto the first year of a degree course. At the end of the Integrated Foundation year you will progress to a BSc Biology, a BSc Marine Biology or a BSc Zoology. Our graduate have become Ecologists, Project Officers, Hydrometry and Telemetry Officers, Benthic Taxonomists, Wildlife and Education Officers, Animal Keepers and Crop Technicians. Our department has strong connections with international and national organisations such as Natural Resources Wales, The British Mammal Society and The National Wetlands Centre Wales which will add value to your studies.
