Our BSc Molecular Biology with Industrial/Professional Experience program allows you to acquire valuable workplace exposure through a year-long placement, enhancing your employability after completing your studies. You'll explore DNA, RNA, and proteins while examining the molecular processes that control cellular functions, alongside key elements of biochemistry, genetics, and cell biology. Discover how major genome initiatives have contributed to our understanding of disease mechanisms at the molecular level, and how genetic engineering is applied in biotechnology to produce essential medical products like clotting factors, insulin, and vaccines. During your third year, you can undertake a placement with one of our approved partner organizations either in the UK or internationally. You also have the option to organize your own placement, pending approval from the School of Biological Sciences.
