Welcome to the RSB Undergraduate Student Pages
Biology includes a wide range of related disciplines that encompass the study
of life from the molecular level, through cells, tissues and organisms, to
populations and ecosystems. Biology is not only of intrinsic interest but has
applications in areas from health and medicine to the management of agriculture
and biodiversity. The Research School of Biology has an excellent reputation
for both research and teaching. Our courses use a range of teaching modes including
lectures, practical classes, tutorials and seminars and cover fundamental concepts
up to the latest research. New biology teaching laboratories reflecting state
of the art educational design are currently under construction. We have first
year conveners dedicated to providing students with advice and support
in the first year of their degree.
The Research School of Biology offers a wide
range of undergraduate
courses that may be taken as part of eight
different majors within the Bachelor
of Science program, or within our specialist programs: the Bachelor
of Medical Science, the Bachelor
of Genetics and the Bachelor
of Biotechnology.
Within all these programs, individually designed "Special
Topics" courses are available to high-achieving second and third
year students. Special Topics courses allow highly motivated students to
undertake supervised independent study,
and are an ideal preparation for Honours.
Honours is a fourth year in which student undertake a 10 month research project
and write a thesis under supervision. On successful completion of Honours,
students are eligible for admission to PhD programs.
RSB also offers several advanced programs for undergraduates who
wish to gain research and/or working experience. Students have the opportunity
to apply for the Bachelor
of Philosophy or Bachelor
of Science (Advanced).
Both of these options are exciting research-focused programs offered at the
ANU.
