This program offers an in-depth exploration of Biology combined with French, delivered at an advanced, research-focused level where students learn how knowledge is developed, expanded, and refreshed. It fosters independent learning among all participants, promoting curiosity, integrity, precision, and academic rigor. Spanning 48 months, the course leads to a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree. Like all St Andrews programs, it consists of credit-based modules, requiring students to complete 480 credits over four years, typically earning 120 credits annually. The initial two years feature core program-specific modules alongside elective options (sometimes including interdisciplinary Faculty choices). The final years emphasize advanced, research-driven education through specialized curriculum modules. The first two years combine mandatory program courses with a selection of electives (potentially from other Faculties), while the later stages focus on tailored, research-oriented study.
