Biology Careers

A Level Biology is now required for the study of medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine at university and highly recommended for a wide range of health care professions such as physiotherapy, nursing, radiotherapy, radiography and pharmacy.

Biology is also very relevant to environmental science, agriculture and science-based psychology courses.

Microbiology provides the basis for many biochemical engineering processes, including food science and technology.

Biology degrees, requiring both numeracy and literacy skills, together with a considerable amount of ICT and project work, have become very attractive to many prospective employers, including the financial sector.
