Overview

This page covers Biotechnology across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Biotechnology is offered as a three year BSc or a four year integrated masters, and the longer route is the usual step towards research.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
