    Programme

    Year one

    In the first year, you will study subjects that underpin crop science, including biochemistry, genetics, ecology and entomology. The course also looks at the commercial application of biology to the agricultural and food industries.

    Years two and three

    During the second and third years, the emphasis moves to the application of crop science. A wide range of modules is available in areas such as field crops, agroecology, biotechnology, soil science, management and economics. It is possible to select modules from all of these areas to give a broad-based degree, or to specialise in one or two key subjects. You will also learn about experimental design in preparation for the start of your research project, which allows you to participate in research carried out in the School of Biosciences.
