The University of Sheffield, UK is inviting applications for its Molecular Biology with an Industrial Placement Year BSc course starting in September 2023.
Discover the diverse range of biochemical, genetic and microbiological approaches needed to understand life at a molecular level. Youll have the opportunity to do a year-long, paid work placement as part of your degree.
University of Sheffields students have found placements at global pharmaceutical companies such as GSK and Pfizer, but your placement doesnt have to be in the lab. You could apply your scientific knowledge and transferable skills outside of the bioscience industry in areas including market research, communications or business development.
A placement is a great opportunity to test out a career path and many students are offered a graduate-level job at the end. Youll pay reduced fees for the year youre on placement and youll still have the support you need from your tutor and the University.
During your time at Sheffield youll study the methods scientists use to sequence genomes, clone and engineer genes, determine molecular structures and analyse cell growth in humans, plants and microbes. Well also show you how this knowledge enables us to develop novel biotechnological solutions to global challenges such as sustainable production and combating disease.
From your first year youll study modules that span the molecular biosciences covering molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics and microbiology. Alongside these modules youll have the freedom to explore complementary topics across the breadth of bioscience, such as biomedicine, ecology, plant science and zoology. This flexibility allows you to study molecular biology in greater depth, keep your interests broad or even switch to another biosciences degree. No matter what modules you choose to study, youll develop the practical laboratory and transferable skills that make our graduates attractive to employers including project management, problem solving, communication skills and data analysis.
You will get plenty of opportunities to apply your new skills and knowledge too. Youll be in the lab completing in-depth practicals across molecular genetics, DNA manipulation and protein structure analysis, and youll get the chance to use cutting-edge equipment to run your own in-depth research projects in an area such as clinical diagnostics or brewing biotechnology.
Duration 4 years
Eligibility-80% in Standard XII including Biology and a second science. IELTS grade of 6.5 with a minimum of 6.0 in each component; or an alternative acceptable English language qualification.
Fee Tuition fees for 2023 entry have not been confirmed. Please use overseas 2022 annual tuition fee 25,670 as a guide.
