About the course
This combined degree builds strong foundations in molecular sciences alongside advanced bioinformatics skills for analysing genomics and other ’omic data. You’ll learn to integrate biology with computational and analytical approaches to investigate questions across health and disease, agriculture, and environmental change. It’s an accelerated pathway designed to take you from undergraduate study into postgraduate specialisation in bioinformatics. The programme deepens scientific methodology, data interpretation, and applied research skills for laboratory and field-based careers.
Career outcome
Graduates are prepared for roles where molecular biology meets data analysis, including bioinformatics and genomics analysis, research support, and laboratory or computational research assistant positions. Opportunities span universities and medical research institutes, biotech and pharmaceutical organisations, and sectors such as agriculture and environmental science. This combined Bachelor and Master pathway supports progression into specialist bioinformatics careers or further research training in the sciences.
