BIO114 Animal Diversity and Behaviour
This 20 credit module is divided into two sections and broadly introduces students to the diversity of animal groups, and the study of animal behaviour. The first 12 lectures will consider the taxonomy and physiology of organisms within the animal kingdom, and will provide students with a broad understanding of all animal life, from single celled protozoa through to megafauna such as the blue whale and concluding with human evolution. The following 10 lectures will consider the evolutionary pressures that drive animal behaviour and give rise to the behavioural adaptations witnessed across the animal kingdom today, from learning and cultural transmission, to anti-predatory mechanisms and migration. The section is concluded with a lecture on human behaviour, determining how we are influenced by the same set of natural regulations that govern our wild counterparts. During this module, students will develop their understanding of animal classification, interrelationships and evolution, and will gain valuable practical experience of animal biology. A sister module, BIO114C, will provide the same content but delivered via the medium of Welsh.

BIO316 Mammalian Carnivore Ecology and Conservation
This course aims to explore the ecology and conservation of one of the most fascinating and iconic groups of extant animals. The charismatic appeal of most mammalian carnivores often overshadows their evolutionary significance and ecological importance. The course covers a wide variety of topics including predator-prey ecology, evolution of the modern mammalian carnivores, social and foraging behaviours, and disease. The module will also discuss the threats currently facing this group, and the global and local strategies that are attempting to halt the decline of many species.
-
BIO328 Epidemiology of zoonotic diseases
The purpose of this module is to provide the learner with a detailed understanding and overview of notable infectious diseases with an emphasis on zoonoses. Diseases covered in this module may include Lyme disease,Toxoplasmosis, influenza, echinococcosis/Hydatid, Bovine spongiform encephalopathy, Cryptosporidiosis and Rabies. Case studies will be used to illustrate key principles of disease epidemiology, pathogen detection,surveillance, risk assessment and control strategies in an applied context. This module would be of particular interest and utility for those learners who wish to pursue a career / further research in parasitological, medical and veterinary subjects

CH-012 Foundational Scientific Skills
This module is designed to develop the core analytical skills of foundation year students in Biosciences, Chemistry and Geography The module focuses on the elements of data analysis and scientific communication, drawing to together these important skills to develop a critical approach to learning in science. Students will be guided through the process of researching and writing a literature review on a pertinent topic in their subject. Workshops will focus on the different stages of research and writing and will be supported in developing these skills through group activities and short weekly tests. Students will also develop their literature review topic into a scientific poster - a valuable skills for future academic study. In the second part of this module, students continue to develop analytical skills through the introduction of experimental design and hypothesis testing as well as some of the key methods of presenting and analysing data. All coursework will be submitted electronically via TURNITIN to ensure compliance with the University's policies on plagiarism.
