| Aims and objectives | |
| The B.Sc. Programme in Human Biology is an interschool, interdepartmental, undergraduate Programme which aims to provide qualified students the opportunity to receive an interdisciplinary perspective on the relationship between the biological, health and sociocultural aspects of human origin, development, function and prospects. The graduates of the Programme are expected to attain a deep knowledge and understanding of contributory subjects in the field of human biology (human biological sciences) and health, to develop expertise in integrating and critically evaluating information and to be able to work independently and as a member of a team. Students are also expected to develop basic laboratory skills and related abilities to analyze and interpret experimental data as well as a number of other transferable skills relevant to employment. |
| Career Prospects | |
| On the basis of the major course requirements and the combination of elective courses, upon graduation youwill have the potential to follow a career: ?In a scientific and/or medical research environment. ?In any Biomedical/Biosciences related diagnostics laboratory (public or private). You will also be able to enter a wide variety of occupations including teaching and those occupations (administrative and research) concerned with Health such as: ?Government Offices (Ministry of Health); the EC, ?Local Health authorities and NGOs, ?Private industry (i.e. pharmaceutical companies), ?Health insurance companies/health service providers, ?Charitable or International Health Organisations (i.e. the WHO, the Red Cross, etc.). Knowledge in human biology and culture, human health and diseases are essential for professionals working in the latter posts in order to be able to confront the challenges of issues on health education, provision of health services, health policy and health advocacy in Cyprus and the European Community. If instead you are interested to continue for a higher degree at the end of your undergraduate studies, you will be qualified to study towards a M.Sc. or Ph.D. in a large number of areas as for example, in Cell and Molecular Biology, Genetics, Public Health and others related to Biosciences, Health or Behavioural Sciences. You will also be qualified to study Medicine, Dentistry or other Paramedical Degree. |
