Bioscientists trained at Durham have developed new technologies for human healthcare and are tackling challenges that include climate change, biodiversity conservation and feeding an increasing human population.The School of Biological and Biomedical Sciences has excellent facilities for both teaching and research, offering high quality undergraduate courses and a supportive environment for our staff and students. Many of our graduates go on to postgraduate study at universities across the UK and overseas and will take up graduate entry to Medicine courses whilst others work in the biosciences sector, the NHS or pharmaceutical industry.The University has custom-designed buildings, equipped with modern teaching aids that create a stimulating learning environment. During their Research Projects undergraduates have access to the latest technology for electron and confocal laser scanning microscopy, transgenic studies, DNA analysis and proteomics, bioinformatics, remote sensing, ecological field sampling and computer modelling. We are close to extensive woodlands and a botanic garden, which provide additional teaching resources and opportunities for fieldwork.
