It was challenging and it gets better when you get used to it. I enjoyed anyway.

Personally, I've strugggled a lot, life at university was difficult and maintaining the right balance between the work and life was quite a bit of a task. I would say its not my cup of tea and I don't know if it was the right decision.

Course programme
You will be given a general introduction to all aspects of modern biology and encouraged to acquire general scientific skills.
Year 2You will be introduced to the study of human physiology, human anatomy, pharmacology and neuroscience. You will also be able to choose from a wide range of other courses.
You will also study other subjects in years 1 and 2: see Degrees in Arts, Life Sciences, Science and Social Sciences.
Years 3, 4 and 5If you progress to Honours (years 3 and 4), you will take courses that will provide an overview of human biology, the anatomy of the upper limb, the anatomy and physiology of the central nervous system, embryo development, and molecular biology. Practical work is very important in anatomy and you will gain genuine hands-on laboratory experience of techniques used by modern anatomists, including human dissection, histology, immunohistochemistry, microscopy (light, confocal, electron microscopy), and other imaging techniques. You will also be encouraged, in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, to make presentations of your findings, allowing you to develop as a competent communicator.
In fourth year a major component of your studies is to complete an independent research project. You will also study certain topics in depth, including clinical applied anatomy, problems in mammalian reproduction, and advanced neuroanatomy.
You can take Anatomy as an MSci, which includes an additional placement year between the third and final years of the degree, normally spent doing research in industry in the UK or overseas.
The list of available final-year optional courses is subject to change each year. In addition, places in optional courses may be limited, so students are not guaranteed a place on a particular final-year option.
Our international linksYou will have the opportunity to apply to study abroad. There are currently two options available: the Erasmus+ Programme and the International Exchange Programme. See Study abroad.
