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 (Biochemistry) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-biochemistry-mbiolsci
Unpicking the biochemical processes that make all living things (and viruses) tick is the first step to understanding the mechanisms that define life. Welcome to the fascinating and diverse world of biochemistry. On the MBiolSci, you will hone your research and laboratory skills and extend your BSc programme into a fourth year of masters level study... -
Geology with Foundation Year BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/geology-with-foundation-year-bsc
There’s always another way to follow your passion. If you don’t quite have the entry requirements to study geology at Leicester, this STEM Foundation Year degree is for you... -
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... -
Medical Genetics BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-genetics-bsc
Genetics and molecular biology already tell us so much about who we are. But when researched and tested in the right ways, they also tell us how to better diagnose and treat disease. If this sounds up your alley, this degree is for you... -
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 (Microbiology) BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-microbiology-bsc
Microorganisms. They might be small, but they tell us more about life on Earth than almost any other living things. You’ll learn how they’re both helpful and harmful, as well as the evolving role of microbiology in biotechnology, health and disease. This degree includes the option to change your specialism in your second year... -
Biological Sciences (Zoology) BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-zoology-bsc
Zoology covers the behaviour, ecology and evolution of everything within the animal kingdom. Alongside the fundamental theories of zoology, you’ll also gain hands-on lab and fieldwork experience. This degree includes the option to change your specialism in your second year...
