专业概况

在这里学什么？ Our BSc Microbiology with a Year in Industry course allows you to do a year-long, paid work placement as part of your degree. You'll pay reduced fees for the year you're on placement and you'll have the support you need from your tutor and the University. Most students earn salaries during their placements and many are offered a graduate-level job at the end.Previous students have found placements at global pharmaceutical companies such as GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer and Unilever. But your placement doesn't have to be in the lab - this course gives you the freedom to test out an alternative career path. For example, you could pursue a role in market research, communications or business development within or outside of the bioscience industry.The course allows you to learn about the fundamental role these tiny organisms play in the world and their part in countless scientific advances. Microbes are crucial in global cycling of nutrients and they're the subjects of our most fundamental experiments to understand how life functions, with their genomes being the first to be completely sequenced. At Sheffield, you'll study the importance of bacteria, viruses, and other microbes in the environment and as pathogens. You'll also learn about how we can manipulate their genetic makeup to put microbes to good use in biotechnology, allowing us to better understand and tackle the global threat of antimicrobial resistant infections.All of our students take compulsory modules designed to give you specialist knowledge of microbiology, whilst also introducing you to biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology. As you progress through your degree and discover what you’re passionate about, optional modules will allow you to explore your chosen subject in greater depth, specialise in one area, keep your interests broad, or even switch to another degree programme within the molecular biosciences.In your first year you’ll spend six hours in the lab each week learning the practical skills and knowledge that every bioscientist needs including how to establish bacterial cultures, assess bioenergetics and perform gene cloning. Analysis classes will equip you with the skills you’ll use outside the lab from interacting with your data to interpreting your findings. Your lectures will give you a broad understanding of the molecular biosciences, allowing you to explore what you’re most interested in.In your second year you’ll begin learning more advanced scientific techniques both in the lab and in lectures with topics including experimental design, genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 and protein purification. You’ll continue to take analysis classes to develop your data handling skills further and you can choose to study modules like “Molecules to Market”, allowing you to work in teams to come up with pioneering science enterprise ideas to launch a virtual business.Once you return from your placement, in your third year you’ll complete an extended research project in an area of molecular bioscience that interests you either in the lab or in wider society, alongside your chosen specialist modules. Depending on your interests and career goals you can choose a project from: experimental science, clinical diagnostics, industrial biotechnology, molecular systems and computing, science communication or education and outreach.Microbiology graduates are well equipped for jobs in universities, research institutes, businesses, the NHS, the pharmaceutical industry and the growing biotechnology industry in order to begin their scientific careers. With a variety of key transferable skills that employers are looking for, including teamwork skills, critical thinking, and how to present effectively, graduates are also well equipped to pursue roles outside of bioscience, from IT and

中国学生入学要求

为来自中国的学生设计 including Mathematics and a scienceIf you are not taking Physics A level and are passionate about studying BEng Aerospace Engineering, find out about our pre-sessional Faculty of Engineering Physics Pathway programme. We would still require AAB from your A levels which must include Maths. For more information about the Pathway programme please see www.sheffield.ac.uk/aerospace/undergraduates/apply/physicspathway or contact the department for more details. Please note that this is only available to applicants who do not require a Tier 4 visa to study in the UK.
