Final level units with pre-/co-requisites
Listed below are all the final level units in the School of Biological Sciences which have pre-/co-requisite units. If a unit has pre-/co-requisites, this means that you may need to take the unit(s) listed in order to take this unit. For example, BIOL21111 is a compulsory prerequisite for BIOL31311, therefore, if you did not take BIOL21111 in your second year, you will not be able to take BIOL31311 in your final year.
Bold indicates a compulsory prerequisite, italics indicate a recommended prerequisite
