Biology
Biology at Kent is hands-on, research-informed and globally focused. You’ll study the complexity and diversity of life, from bacteria and viruses to animals, plants and entire ecosystems. The course equips you with the analytical, practical and critical thinking skills needed to understand how living systems work – and how they are affected by external forces.

You’ll work alongside leading researchers from your very first year, gaining lab and field skills using the latest techniques and equipment. You’ll also have the chance to explore the unknown – through final-year research projects and a dedicated module on global challenges in biology.

The course reflects the full breadth of biology. Whether you’re interested in cell biology, genetics, ecology or conservation, you can shape your degree to suit your strengths and interests.
