Overview

The Biological Sciences with Professional Placement MSci course offers the opportunity to combine an academic degree course with a full year of professional training in a setting outside the University of Birmingham. This flexible Biological Sciences with Professional Placement degree programme combines academic education with professional training in a non­-University setting. The modular course programme allows students to explore the full spectrum of biology, from ecosystems and organisms to molecular biology, keeping either a broad perspective or focusing on a narrowly defined area. Students on the MSci Professional Placement course cannot be awarded one of the 3-­year specialist degree titles (Genetics, Zoology). Nevertheless, there are no restrictions on their ability to choose modules of these areas. The placement extends over 10-11 months, intercalated between the second and final year. The project students will pursue during their placement allows them to apply their skills at an early stage in industry, non-governmental or public sector organisations. In today’s competitive jobs market, having work experience will look excellent on a CV. The experience of working as a professional bioscientist during the course of the degree will also help students to define their career objectives. This programme has been accredited by the Royal Society of Biology following an independent and rigorous assessment. Advanced Degree accreditation highlights the degrees that have the potential to educate the life science leaders and innovators of the future.
