Course summary

If you are fascinated by all aspects of the living world, you will thrive on our MBiol Biology degree course here at Aberystwyth University. By choosing the MBiol degree scheme, you will combine a BSc with an extra year of study to graduate with a Masters qualification. During the three years studying at undergraduate level, you will explore a whole host of diverse topics that cover the cellular and molecular up to whole organisms. During your final year studying at Masters level, you will have the opportunity to apply your subject-specific knowledge and understanding to an independent scientific research project conducted in close collaboration with one of our research groups. Join us on our exciting MBiol Biology degree course and you will develop the breadth and depth of biological knowledge required to pursue a career as a professional scientist, and you will find that Aberystwyth is one of the best places in the world to explore our wonderful living world.

The Integrated Masters in Biology (C109) is for students who have the ability to study to a higher level than the standard BSc degree and integrates three years of undergraduate study in Biology with a further year of postgraduate-level study. If you choose this degree, you will graduate with an MBiol (Biology) - a recognised Masters qualification that will prepare you for a career in academic or commercial biological research. The final year at postgraduate level will give you the opportunity to complete a Masters research project embedded within one of our pioneering research groups and led by expert staff. You will pursue this alongside your studies on taught modules that develop the essential skills that are required of today’s professional biologists.

On our MBiol Biology degree course, you won’t have to limit yourself to just one area of Biology. You might be studying microbiology in the morning, and investigating the life found in sand dunes in the afternoon. Our degree structure is flexible and gives you the opportunity to keep your options open or to specialise.
