Overview

Biotechnology With Stem Foundation Year is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Biotechnology splits the week between lectures and laboratory work, and the final stage is built around a supervised research project.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £14,500 a year.

Send us your transcript and English result and we will list the departments that would consider you, with the entry condition on each.
