 Learning outcome
1Exhibit a broad and coherent body of knowledge in the Life Sciences and describe how knowledge is created and contestable through further inquiry
2Exhibit a deep understanding and skills of one disciplinary area in the Life Sciences and integrate this with at least another discipline in Life Sciences
3Explore through experiments knowledge and concepts in Life Sciences and develop technical skills
4Work competently, safely and responsibly in the laboratory, using a variety of practical and analytical techniques
5Source, and collate Life Science information from a range of sources. Critically evaluate the validity of the information by cross referencing and through an assessment of the quality of the source information
6Synthesise information from multiple related disciplines within the Life Sciences and apply these principles to more disparate discipline areas
7Communicate Life Science concepts and experimental findings through a range of modes for a variety of purposes and audiences, using evidence-based arguments that are robust to critique
8Propose a hypothesis and design an experimental plan in the Life Sciences including the identification of controls, and choice of relevant measurable outcomes
9Address integrated and authentic problems in Life science, work professionally and ethically within collaborative, interdisciplinary teams
10Examine and evaluate contemporary issues in Life Sciences from a range of ethical and cross-cultural perspectives
