About this course

Biological sciences is the study of living things in all their diversity, from the molecular machinery of cells to the ecology of entire ecosystems. It encompasses genetics, physiology, cell biology, evolutionary theory, microbiology, and ecology, providing a broad scientific foundation for understanding how life works, how organisms interact, and how biological systems respond to environmental change. It is a discipline that has never been more relevant, as advances in genomics, synthetic biology, and environmental science reshape both what we know and what we can do. At the University of Surrey, this four-year full-time degree includes a foundation year, which provides a supported introduction to biological science for students whose previous qualifications do not yet meet the standard entry requirements but who have the motivation and potential to succeed at degree level.
