  • It was really good and thanks for everything. I had a nice time in all.

  • The course was a bit slow but it has its own benefits and I enjoyed the same. At times its hard to be motivated every time but then in all, I had a positive experience. Thanks.

  • It's been very insane. I didn't feel like an understudy for an actually prolonged stretch of time, however, when I met a few companions who resembled me and that improved my experience.

Course programme

Year 1

You will be given a general introduction to all aspects of modern biology and taught general scientific skills.

Year 2

You will be introduced to the study of human physiology and anatomy, pharmacology and neuroscience, as well as choosing 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 5

If you progress to Honours (years 3 and 4), in year 3 you will study the physiological adaptations to exercise, nutrition and energetics, focusing on the cardio-respiratory and skeletomuscular systems, and complete specialist courses in statistics and molecular biology techniques.

In fourth year, you will take courses such as:

  • Food and nutrient requirements through the lifecycle
  • Digestion, absorption and nutritional metabolism
  • Exercise and sports nutrition
  • Dietary assessment and nutritional epidemiology

You will also carry out a substantial research project.

You can take this programme as an MSci, which includes an additional placement year, between the third and final years of the degree. This is normally spent doing research in industry or some other organisation in the UK or overseas.

Our international links

You 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.
