Why Study
The enthusiastic teaching team are involved in high-quality international research, combining expertise across the full spectrum of biological sciences. Our programmes of study actively combine laboratory-based practical sessions, lectures and field courses. Many also include specialist lectures given by practising experts in areas including forensic biology and bioveterinary science.
Campus
Our historic Parkgate Road Campus is home to the Department of Biological Sciences. Just a short walk from Chester city centre, students here benefit from modern teaching facilities alongside social hubs and accommodation at the heart of the University. The campus also boasts an abundance of green space, providing an inspiring environment in which to live and study.
Facilities
The Department has recently benefitted from the establishment of three new teaching laboratories containing internet-linked workstations. You will also be able to take advantage of the campus’ modern lecture theatres and the learning resource centre, featuring the library and open-access computer facilities.
