Introduction to Microbiology, Immunology and Genetics

Put the theory behind bioinformatics under the microscope. Step inside database and information systems and see how they’re organised. Identify biological proteins and analyse their structures. Manipulate DNA sequences and study molecular modelling.

Bioinformatics

Prepare for a professional scientific career. Write and communicate using a range of suitable language, tools and science protocols. Work responsibly and safely. Explain the role and relevance of science in society. Gain practical study skills.

Zero in on the building blocks that make up organisms across the planet. Question how genes are structured and mapped. Consider concepts like inheritance and DNA repair. Look to the ethical quandaries that the study of molecular biology can raise.

Genetics and Molecular Biology

Learn how professionals respond to infectious disease outbreaks. Play your part in an outbreak response team in a simulated epidemic setting. Analyse the cause and spread of an outbreak, learn how to control it, and plan communication strategies

Outbreak: The Detection and Control of Infectious Disease

Discover the structure, diversity and function of living cells. Explore cell origin and evolution. Learn the specialised role of eukaryotic organelles. Put cells under the microscope from composition and respiration to division and regulation

Cell Structure and Function

Study inorganic, organic and physical chemistry. Define the structure of metals. Use integrated rate laws to assess conductance and measure reaction rates. Apply the principles of phase equilibrium to ideal and real solutions

Map the genetics, immunology and microbiology of the human body. Learn to examine, isolate, transfer and culture micro-organisms. Consider cell structure and replication. Study the immune system. Learn about inheritance traits and genetic transfer. 

Navigate the journey between science fact and fiction. Learn how fictional ideas inspire futuristic, functional design. From Star Trek to cryogenics and nanotechnology, clarify how scientific research has solved many tech challenges in society. 

Science Fiction, Science Fact

Grow and nurture your knowledge of the environment. Map the impact of carbon dioxide produced by human activities. Reveal the state of the environment and impact of mining. Study hazardous waste and wastewater treatment. 

Environmental Studies

Revolve around the origin and development of the galaxy and universe. Navigate a course in astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology. Explore the life cycle of stars and the gravitational effects of black holes. Discuss the Big Bang hypothesis.
