Biology

Course summary

Biological science topics are diverse – from molecular biology to the biosphere. A qualification in Biology equips you with many skills: literacy, numeracy, social awareness and an ability to make connections between natural, social, economic, political and technological fields. A Level Biology can lead to a wide range of degree courses in Biology, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Genetics, Environmental Science and Psychology. It is desirable for paramedical courses such as Nursing, Physiotherapy, Ophthalmology, Medicine and Veterinary Science. Biologists have many opportunities: the pharmaceutical industry, clinical and health professions, conservation, agriculture and forestry.
