Biology
What is Biology?
Biology is the study of living organisms.
The Biology course at Manchester offers flexibility and diversity. This means that you can keep your options broad and cover a wide range of areas, but similarly, you can focus on particular biological topics when you realise that these are areas that interest and hopefully excite you.
Field courses can form an exciting part of the degree in your first and second year with opportunities to work in the UK, Europe, Africa and South America.
