生物与生物技术MBiol

生物技术是生物学的一种应用，它通过创新地利用细胞和分子过程来开发有益的技术和产品，从而改善生活质量和地球的健康。从历史上看，生物技术对人类生活产生了重大影响，最早的生物技术人员利用微生物的发酵能力生产食品，例如面包，奶酪，啤酒和葡萄酒。在当今世界，现代生物技术提供了突破性的产品和技术来抗击疾病，减少我们对环境的影响，满足饥饿者的需求，减少我们的能源需求，提供更清洁的能源以及生产更安全，更清洁和更高效的工业流程。该课程将使下一代科学家有能力以创新的方式解决全球问题，从而为世界带来健康，活力和营养。您将获得涵
This is an extended undergraduate programme which allows you to graduate either with BSc (Hons) at the end of the third year or with an MBiol at the end of the fourth year. If at the end of Year 2 a sufficient standard is achieved, then progression onto the Masters year will be permitted following completion of Year 3. The fourth year offers a unique opportunity to conduct an extended research project either in the laboratory or in the field. Biotechnology is all about applying biological processes to improve quality of life and the health of our planet. This is done through the innovative use of cellular and molecular processes to develop beneficial technologies and products. Historically, biotechnology has had a significant impact upon human life, with the earliest biotechnologists harnessing the fermentative capabilities of microorganisms to produce food products such as bread, cheese, beer and wine. In today’s world, modern biotechnology offers breakthrough products and technologies to combat disease, reduce our impact on the environment, feed the hungry, reduce our energy demands, provide cleaner energy, and produce safer, cleaner and more efficient industrial processes. This degree will empower you, our next generation scientist to address global issues to heal, fuel and feed the world. You will receive training that covers evolutionary, ecological, environmental, molecular and cellular aspects of biology, and there is opportunity to follow applied aspects of biology as well as learn about fundamental processes and mechanisms. Our teaching is underpinned by internationally-recognised research. Our academic staff are experts in biotechnology research, from a number of biological disciplines covering medical and environmental microbiology, plant biology, biodiversity and genetics, and cell and genome biology. We also provide a diversity of practical, laboratory and field biology experience, enabling you to acquire transferable skills (data analysis, group work, writing and presentational skills, IT skills). We make extensive use of of our local environment, we have an exceptional range of local terrestrial and aquatic habitats on our doorstep, and use these for field courses and practical classes. We have our own botanical gardens with various habitats for biological studies. We are also part of the Environment Centre Wales, which is a partnership venture between Bangor University and the Natural Environment Research Council’s Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH).
