What it is

You study cell structure and organelles, biomolecules such as sugars, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, the transmission of genetic information, human physiology and the immune system, metabolic pathways, bioinformatics, and biotechnology applied to pharmaceuticals and agriculture. A large share of your time is spent in the laboratory running experiments, analysing results and writing reports, with internships and electives that let you steer towards your career interests. Graduates work as research scientists, industrial, medical or agricultural biotechnologists, project managers, lab technicians, clinical medical representatives, science editors and teachers, or start their own ventures.

What you need

  • Every foreign applicant, IB holders included, sits an online oral exam in biology and chemistry (pass mark 10 of 20).
