Take your scientific ideas from the lab bench to the marketplace with this innovative Biotechnology and Enterprise course. No prior knowledge of business or enterprise is needed as you study biotechnology alongside entrepreneurship, fully supported by our outstanding Business School. You will develop in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of applied cellular and molecular life sciences, in addition to the business skills necessary to turn your ideas into a reality. With this exciting degree, you’ll explore global challenges such as food security, designing biofuels and development of new medicines, enabling you to have a practical impact on the world. This integrated Masters (MBiol) gives you an additional year of specialist training, to study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project. You may also choose to apply for our 3 year BSc and transfer to an MBiol up until the end of your second year, subject to suitable academic performance. **Why study at Leeds** * Study with one of the largest centres for biological sciences research in the UK, with access to cutting- edge facilities, industry links and specialist research opportunities. * Flexible options to transfer onto other suitable and related degrees at the end of year 1, as many programmes within our School share a common first year. * Put theory into practice by undertaking fieldwork activities within the UK, Spain and South Africa. You’ll advance your research skills and gain hands-on experience highly valued by employers in industry or in postgraduate education.
