Molecular & Cellular Biology Bsc/msci in University of Glasgow, UK

Molecular & Cellular Biology Bsc/msci in University of Glasgow

Molecular and cellular biology combines genetics and biochemistry to understand life at the molecular level and it aims to explain how molecular function produces the hierarchy of living cells, tissues and ultimately whole organisms.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

YEAR 1

You will be given a general introduction to all aspects of modern biology and encouraged to acquire general scientific skills.

YEAR 2

You will develop your knowledge of fundamental aspects of biology and be introduced to specialist subject areas according to your interests.

YEARS 3, 4 AND 5

If you progress to Honours (years 3 and 4) you will study a broad spectrum of molecular topics: molecular genetic methods, genomics, proteins, membranes and filaments, DNA structure and function, gene expression, mobile DNA, biotechnology, essential cell biology and experimental strategies.

In year 4 you will learn to study and interpret primary data from current research and you will choose from a range of specialised advanced courses. You will also undertake a research project.

Molecular & Cellular Biology can be taken as an MSci, which includes an additional placement year, between the third and final years of the degree. This is normally spent doing research in industry or some other organisation such as a research institute, in the UK or overseas. 

The available final-year optional courses may change each year and places may be limited.

Programme alteration or discontinuation
The University of Glasgow endeavours to run all programmes as advertised. In exceptional circumstances, however, the University may withdraw or alter a programme.
