These six core modules are also common to DT260 Industrial & Environmental Physics, DT261 Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences and DT212 Science. Students taking the Biosciences programme take two additional core modules: (a) Microbiology & Society and (b) the Human Body and Disease and a third optional module.

In addition students will select from a group of optional modules including Biomedical Science, Veterinary Science, Biopharmceutical Science, Nutrition & Food Science and Technology. An important element in the final year is a project which is usually focused on an applied laboratory-based problem in one of the core subjects. A number of projects will be based in industrial, state or research laboratories by arrangement.
