Biology is an exciting and rapidly developing subject area with great relevance to addressing global challenges from disease and poverty to biodiversity loss and climate change. The study of living things has undergone tremendous expansion in recent years. Topics such as cell biology, developmental biology, evolutionary biology and ecology, all of which are covered in the course, are advancing at a great pace. This expansion has been accompanied by an integration of different biological disciplines. A biologist with an interest in tropical plants may well use many of the tools and techniques that are indispensable to a molecular geneticist.
