Foundation Year in Life Sciences CertHE

Course Overview

You'll learn the core skills in chemistry and numeracy that youll need to succeed throughout your degree. Once youve completed this course, youll move into our life sciences curriculum where youll continue to develop the core skills and knowledge to understand the field as a whole. Youll cover topics like genetics, cell biology, biological organization, molecular mechanisms, and processes. Youll further develop practical skills, including laboratory skills, data analysis, and how to design and run experiments. This will prepare you for carrying out projects later in your course. In Levels 3 and 4, you can pick modules that interest you, and transfer to a different life sciences course if you find your interests change, as long as youve chosen the relevant modules. The work of our researchers shapes our curriculum from Level 1 onwards so youll learn the latest theories, and gain a great understanding of the wider field. Laboratory sessions will help integrate your knowledge and practical skills, and develop strong transferable skills, both in and out of the lab.
