Many career possibilities are open to graduate biologists. MSci graduates would be well prepared for PhD degrees or employment in many areas of biological sciences. Biologists find employment in ecology, environmental impact, healthcare, molecular biology, climate change, biological modelling, scientific publishing, TV, support to government, teaching in colleges, universities and schools, public education (zoos, museums, nature reserves, scientific societies etc.) and biomedical sciences. Employers now expect an impressive list of skills, knowledge and experience in their graduate recruits. They welcome transferable skills acquired during a work placement, such as communication, numeracy, use of IT, group work and time management. In addition to allowing you to develop a link with a potential employer, the extended project makes you a more effective employee following graduation.
