Foundation Biology + Maths for Natural Sciences
Program Summary
Module group of: Health, Life & Biosciences Pathway Mathematics is an essential skill for all scientific disciplines, and by combining it with biology, you’ll be able to organise and analyse data in a robust way. This module combination brings a balance of learning about biological and mathematical concepts. For example, you’ll study things like biological molecules, molecular biology and microbiology while also looking at algebra, geometry, matrices, differentials, and more. This depth of knowledge is important for careers where you’re working with biological data in fields such as biostatistics, bioinformatics, population ecology and epidemiology. That’s because, when you study biology and mathematics, you’ll get a much deeper understanding of how to use data and statistics to test hypotheses, measure changes over time, draw comparisons and form conclusions. By combining these two modules, you’ll be eligible to apply for degrees like Biomedical Engineering, Natural Sciences, Neuroscience & Psychology, Psychology & Criminology, and Sport & Exercise Medical Sciences. You will study a total of four modules and you will be allocated either one of English for Scientific Academic Purposes or Academic Expression & Critical Thinking plus the Society module. Take a look at the Biology module and Mathematics for Natural Sciences module to see more details about what you will learn from each foundation module, and view the full list of recommended and eligible undergraduate degrees on the tabs below.
