The MBiol in Biology is a five-year Integrated Masters course run by the School of Biology. Biology at St Andrews provides students with high-tech equipment, laboratories and expertise to facilitate learning and to develop the skillset of a modern biologist.

Alongside biology, in the first year of the studies students will be required to study an additional two subjects. In the second year, they will usually carry on at least one of these subjects, sometimes two. 

In the first three years of the degree, they will cover the fundamental aspects of biology and begin to focus on advanced core material in their chosen area. In third year, there is a shift from core, broad-themed modules to more specialised modules that allow students to prepare for their Honours degree.

In your fourth year, students typically undertake a year-long research placement, often away from St Andrews, in a research institute or in industry, along with an experimental design distance learning module.

The fifth and final year of the Masters degree involves highly specialised taught courses in their chosen speciality.

The University of St Andrews operates on a flexible modular degree system by which degrees are obtained through the accumulation of credits.
