This program offers an in-depth exploration of Biology combined with Arabic, focusing on advanced, research-driven learning where students discover how knowledge evolves and expands. Participants will develop a passion for self-directed study, characterized by inquisitiveness, precision, and academic excellence. Spanning 48 months, it culminates in a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree. Like all St Andrews programs, it consists of credit-based modules, requiring students to complete 480 credits (typically 120 per year). The initial two years feature mandatory program-specific courses alongside elective options, sometimes including interdisciplinary selections. The final years emphasize specialized, research-oriented coursework tailored to the program's focus. The first two years combine core subjects with flexible electives, potentially from other faculties, while later years concentrate on advanced, discipline-specific studies.
