Overview

This page covers Genetics with a Modern Language 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 Genetics is assessed through practical reports as well as written papers, and the lab component is what makes the timetable full.

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.
