Points of entry for Biotechnology with International Study BSc Hons

Year 1

Entry requirements for Material Science and Technology and Biotechnology at The University of Manchester

Entry requirements are the formal requirements students need to meet to be considered for a place on a university course. But, each year many universities accept students with lower grades. The bar chart below shows the actual UCAS tariff points of students currently on this course.
A,A,B

Required subjects for Biotechnology with International Study BSc Hons at The University of Manchester

AAB, including two of Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics (the Core Sciences). If you are taking only one of the above Core Science subjects and an A-level in at least one of Geography, Psychology, Environmental Studies or Physical Education, we can consider you for an AAA offer. If your predicted grades are one grade below our minimum entry requirements, we may still make you an aspirational offer if you meet our contextual criteria. Subjects with overlapping content are not normally considered as separate A-levels. For example, Further Mathematics is not considered alongside Mathematics, and Human Biology is not considered alongside Biology. If you are concerned there is too much overlap in your A-level subjects, please contact us for advice before applying. Practical skills are a crucial part of science education and therefore will be a requirement to pass the practical element of any science A-level taken. Where applicants are applying for science and related degrees, this is likely to be made explicit in the offer you will receive. Applicants taking A-levels are normally expected to offer three full A-levels. If you're taking more than three A-levels, these won't be included in your offer. We will only make offers consisting of three A-levels. Typical Contextual Offer: ABB-ABC including specific subjects. Practical skills are a crucial part of science education and therefore will be a requirement to pass the practical element of any science A-level taken.

University of Manchester's Campus is close to the city centre, modern and a really nice walk. Buildings are well equipped and mantained and staff is always really helpful. There is a lot of activities and societies for students' that are interested, and most of them are free to access. Careers Service could be improved by making the website and jobsearch easier, especially for young students or that have never worked before. Eduroam wifi could be improved as it is not that simple to set up the first time and multiple times it disconnects automatically and struggles to reconnect. read more

Choosing a university is especially important for a Master’s, and my experience with the MSc Advanced Computer Science at the University of Manchester has shown me why you should look at the course, not just the university’s reputation. One of the biggest advantages of the course is its flexibility. A large part of the degree is made up of electives, so you can mix and match subjects and essentially build your own pathway. This freedom is something you rarely see elsewhere. It gives you the breadth to explore different areas of computer science and the time to figure out what you genuinely enjoy and may want to pursue. Beyond the curriculum, there are numerous opportunities to get involved, meet people, try new things and explore areas you never expected. Some of the best opportunities can come from the most unexpected places. My biggest advice: participate, explore and say yes. You never know where an opportunity might take you. read more

You get the best of both worlds at this University. The city life and a beautiful campus. I like that all the libraries have different vibes. My lecturers have all been lovely. The only fault I have is that communication can sometimes be a bit slow. I have had numerous occasions where it has taken over a week for someone to get back to me on my email. Besides that though I highly recommend it. read more

The campus review is nothing short of interesting, curiosity and nervousness. Being a second year student the nervousness to meet new professors and excitement for the freshers fair remains just the same like the first year. Though, this year I know my way around the university much better, wider ideas of all the support and services available from SoE to SU. At the end, I am anxious of tue journey ahead by truly grateful for it :) read more
