Course Overview

The Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) Degree Programme in Human Biology is an accredited interschool/interdepartmental, undergraduate Programme. It aims to provide students with the opportunity to receive an interdisciplinary perspective on the relationship between the biological, health and socio-cultural aspects of humanity’s origin, development, function, and prospects.

Objectives

  1. Introduce students to biological sciences and teach them how these are interrelated in understanding human biological functions.
  2. Teach students how these functions are related to human evolution, behavior, and culture.
  3. Help students analyze, discuss critically and relate biological issues to human health and diseases.
  4. Prepare students for advanced academic studies and research in the biosciences, the biomedical fields, and in medicine.
  5. Prepare students for a career in the pharmaceutical, medical, and biotechnology industries and in the education sector.
  6. Help students develop ethos and skills and attitudes required for lifelong learning.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the programme the graduates will be able to:

  1. Name, identity, describe, relate and explain the role and importance of the biological components, processes and mechanisms that define biological form and function at the molecular, cellular, and whole-body levels.
  2. Relate biological functions to health and disease and discuss these in relation to human development, genes, behavior and culture.
  3. Follow instructions, apply techniques, and use modern technologies to collect, analyze, evaluate and critically appraise experimental data.
  4. Describe and discuss the theoretical and experimental basis and technologies used in scientific research.
  5. Design and execute a research project and organize, interpret, discuss and critically evaluate related scientific literature and research outcomes.
  6. Apply critical, analytical, reflective, and independent thinking (cognitive skills) in problem-solving in the life and health sciences fields.
  7. Apply life-long learning skills (computer skills, numeracy, communication, and reporting), and demonstrate a professional and ethical approach to working individually or as a member of a team.
