Gain a broad training in geoscience as for our BSc Geology degree, and then develop masters-level expertise, including a research project on a topic of interest to you. What might you discover?.. -
Medical Biochemistry BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-biochemistry-bsc
Many of today’s common diseases are linked to defects in the molecular processes that occur in the body. To make big breakthroughs in diagnosing and treating disease, we therefore often have to look at life at the molecular level. Studying biochemistry in this way will give you an understanding of some of the world’s most pressing health issues... -
Medical Microbiology BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-microbiology-bsc
Infectious diseases account for a quarter of all deaths. It’s a hard statistic to take in, but it’s why we keep studying the microscopic organisms that cause them. In this degree, you’ll learn how infectious diseases are caused, prevented, managed and cured – in both research and clinical environments... -
Biological Sciences BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-bsc
From the simplest to the most complex organisms, from the molecular level to the evolutionary development of species, the living world is endlessly complex and fascinating. This degree takes you across biological boundaries with the option to specialise in your second year... -
Medical Physiology BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-physiology-bsc
The human body works through complex interactions between ions, atoms, molecules, cells and systems. Whilst allowing maintenance of diverse functions in health, even subtle changes can result in disease. Understanding how these components operate in normal physiology and how they malfunction in disease provides the opportunity to understand how we target disease and how new therapies might be developed... -
Biological Sciences (Neuroscience) BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-neuroscience-bsc
The nervous system extends throughout the body both in Man and in other organisms to control many complex functions. Alterations in the structure and function of the nervous system, from the molecular to the systems level, can result in disease, thereby highlighting the importance of understanding the nervous system and being able to target it to treat disease... -
Biological Sciences (Microbiology) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-microbiology-mbiolsci
Microorganisms may be small, but they tell us more about life on Earth than almost any other life form. On this degree you will learn how and why microorganisms cause disease and how microbes have been used for millennia in everything from food production to sewage treatment. On the MBiolSci, you will hone your research and laboratory skills and extend your medically specialised BSc programme into a fourth year of masters level study... -
Biological Sciences (Neuroscience) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-neuroscience-mbiolsci
Computers are powerful machines, but no computer is more powerful or complex than the human brain. Studying neuroscience will reveal how brains and nervous systems work in animals, including humans – and what happens when something goes wrong... -
