Cancer Biology and Immunology at University of Bristol - UCAS

Course summary

In your first year you will gain a broad understanding of the biology of normal and cancerous cells. In addition to studying the immune system, you will take pathology, microbiology and biochemistry units. In the second year you will study the cellular and molecular basis of cancer and its therapy, as well as autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes and arthritis, and human cancers caused by viruses, such as papillomavirus and hepatitis B. You will take molecular genetics and an optional unit, possibly biochemistry, from a selection offered. All practical teaching in years one and two is supported by the eBiolabs dynamic laboratory manual. In the final year you will undertake a research project or scientific dissertation, working in a research or teaching laboratory in our Biomedical Sciences building or in one of the hospitals. Your work may even be published in scientific literature. The four-year BSc Cancer Biology and Immunology with Study in Industry is available by transfer after securing a placement during your second year.
