*BSc Biological Sciences students must choose whether they wish to study BS211 or BS212 and must attend the
corresponding field course.
BS212 and BS213 Field Courses
If you are considering changing to a course which requires you to take BS212 or BS213, you should go to the
information sessions. To be eligible to attend the BS212 or BS213 field courses, you will need to complete a field
course registration form and a medical questionnaire (available at the information sessions). Failure to complete
and return these forms to the appropriate organiser means that we will not be able to book a place for you on the
relevant field course. Students that undertake BS212 or BS213 will be required to undertake an additional
compulsory module, BS257 Career Development and Research Skills for Ecological and Marine Scientists.
