Program Overview

In this hands-on degree you’ll explore the organisms living in marine environments from the coastal margins to the deep sea.

In your first year, you’ll get to grips with key biological and oceanographic themes, with topics ranging from biodiversity and ecosystems to evolution and microbiology. Through a mixture of lectures, small group tutorials, laboratory and fieldwork, you’ll begin to acquire skills that will boost your employability and help your career development. . You’ll also benefit from a South West England field course, introducing you to some of the most spectacular marine environments in North West Europe and the processes of scientific investigation, data collection and analysis.
