生物学是对生命和生物的研究。生物学对地球生命至关重要，它影响着从全球变暖和气候变化到与世界人口增长有关的挑战及其对环境，粮食安全，医学，健康，疾病和人口老龄化的影响。这是一个引人入胜的主题，它回答了诸如生命如何开始之类的关键问题，并为重大的社会和道德挑战（例如对人口，保护和栖息地的威胁）提供了发展和解决方案。在利兹大学学习生物学的本科学位可让您根据自己的兴趣来调整学位。您将获得对分子，细胞，生物和种群生物学的广泛了解，并有机会通过广泛的可选模块进行专业化研究。您将对遗传学，免疫学，微生物学和其他关键学科有
From genes to behaviour and evolution to ecology, studying Biology at Leeds will provide you with a holistic understanding of the whole topic. Personalise your degree to match your needs as you progress, with options to pursue human biology, conservation, genetic engineering or any one of the other study areas the University of Leeds has to offer. Biology has vital applications in current key global challenges. An ever-growing world population jeopardises the environment, while pressures on resources threaten endangered species and agricultural production. With your degree, you’ll be at the forefront of providing sustainable solutions. Be part of the revolution in genomics, gene modification and biotechnology currently transforming the world. Equipped with the skills and knowledge of the fundamental biological processes, understand and drive forward science-based solutions to some of the world’s biggest issues. This 3-year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, to study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project.Course highlightsField course options include trips within the UK, Spain and South Africa, developing practical field-based skills in a wide range of habitats. Access to visit and conduct research at the University’s state-of-the-art National Pig Centre. Collaborate on your final year research project with an expert in the field. For example, you could study marine biology to better manage coral reefs threatened by climate change, understand how bees cooperate as social animals, or develop new ways to reduce the impact of invasive species on local ecosystems.Build practical experience undertaking modules including practical genetics, parasitology and field course options.Our year in industry programme allows you to gain experience working with organisations, developing new skills for your CV. Experience life and learning in a different country through our study abroad programme, where you'll gain fresh perspectives and develop skills valued by employers. The ongoing expansion of biosciences creates varied employment prospects and career opportunities. Flexible degreesBiology is a broad-based degree within the School of Biology that offers you flexibility throughout your time studying at Leeds.All of our biology degree courses share the same set of compulsory modules in the first year. A key benefit of having a common first year is that at the end of year 1, there are opportunities to transfer onto degree courses in Zoology, Ecology and Conservation Biology and Genetics, subject to approval. Additional degree courses may be available depending on your academic background.Biology or Biological ScienceUnsure of the difference between biology and biological sciencesFacilitiesYour degree will be based in the Faculty of Biological Sciences, one of the largest centres for biological sciences research in the UK and home to cutting-edge research facilities. The course makes use of the UK’s largest and most advanced facility for research into pig nutrition, behaviour, welfare & health, and production systems, the National Pig Centre. This is part of the University’s research farm, where you can also learn about sustainable agriculture, while you can study plant biology in the Faculty’s extensive greenhouse and plant growth facilities.You’ll also have access to field research stations based in Europe and Africa to help you learn about ecology and behaviour in natural surroundings while the city’s green spaces and nearby Yorkshire Dales National Park provide a range of habitats that support modules in ecology and behaviour. Clinical staff at St James hospital contribute to genetics courses and supervise final-year projects for students with interests in human genetics.Ecology and Wildlife Conservation online courseGet a taste of Biology BSc with our exceptional online course, Ecology and Wildlife Conservation.
