Overview

This page covers Biotechnology across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

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. We currently work with 5 universities on this course across 5 cities.

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.

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.
