With our human physiology degree, you’ll develop strong theoretical and technical skills in the assessment of human health and disease. You’ll look in-depth at the human body – from the cellular level to the whole person – through specialisms like cell and molecular sciences, neuroscience, exercise and nutritional physiology, and cardiovascular science.

In our specialist laboratories, you’ll learn how to monitor and scientifically investigate the physiological systems in our bodies and how they react when stressed from illness or the environment.

Group study brings vital teamwork and communication skills, while in your final year you’ll get the chance to focus and develop your academic interests through an independent piece of research, working with one of our expert researchers.

The degree will also launch you on a professional path and by the time you’ve finished, you will have partly met the academic and experience requirement for membership of the Royal Society of Biology and Chartered Biologist (CBiol) status.
