 BSc Degree in Microbiology

Students wishing to obtain a BSc Degree in Microbiology must do so through the general BSc Science Degree (GY301). This is a four year programme in which students are exposed to a variety of scientific subjects before deciding to specialise in one area for their final year. It is an ideal option for students who are not yet ready to pick one topic and will equip them with solid foundation in general scientific subjects. Biological, chemical, mathematical, physical and earth and ocean sciences can be combined. 

Course Information by Year

To obtain a BSc in Microbiology, students must choose Biology in first year and Microbiology in second, third and final year. It is important to note that quotas apply from second year onwards, and in the case of high demand, module placement will be determined by the student’s grades so far.
