Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Life Sciences (Placement Year) (LF02)

Life sciences are at the forefront of modern science. With this degree students will have a mix of skills, in areas they have chosen, across a range of science streams. Recent employment research from several Research Councils has highlighted the need for graduates to have interdisciplinary skills and the ability to use the latest analytical and computational techniques. At Brunel, they’ve responded to this research, and this programme is designed to get students job ready. An example of this is the computational data analysis option which gives students the skills increasingly required by employers.

Students will choose from a wide range of science subjects including biological, environmental, psychological and sport sciences. Students will also learn computational and statistical data analysis and quantitative research giving them the skill sets to work with big data sets – a fundamental part of modern science. Students can even opt for modules such as languages and creative writing. Students graduate with a unique set of skills so that they’ll be ready to enter the world of work with a competitive edge.
