3 SECTION 2: WHY STUDY THIS PROGRAMME? The purpose of the Human Biology degree is to provide students with a flexible but structured programme of study that will prepare them for careers in the field of Human Biosciences. Human Biology is a large and richly varied subject and this variety combined with the modular nature of this degree allows students to create a challenging degree programme that reflects their interests and needs. The degree offers a large choice of modules from a wide range of relevant subject areas. Biology of humans is studied at a systematic and whole human organism level with a Physiology core and choices from different specialisms such as psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, molecular biology, microbiology, disease and cancer, immunology, exercise and nutrition. Oxford Brookes Human Biology students can either take a broad approach, based on the principles and methods of different aspects of biology, or focus on a narrower range of modules with a view to becoming a specialist. The flexible nature of this course allows the creation of a degree that reflects individuals needs and evolves as their interests develop. Oxford Brookes has an international reputation for outstanding research work in the biological and biomedical sciences. The teaching team enjoys research collaborations with Oxford and Cambridge and the course benefits from the physiology facilities and experts within local hospitals. Staff profiles for members of the core teaching team for the degree can be found on Department/School website: SECTION 3: PROGRAMME LEARNING OUTCOMES On successful completion of the programme, graduates will demonstrate the following Brookes Attributes: 3.1 ACADEMIC LITERACY demonstrate in-depth subject specific core knowledge and transferable skills as well as a broadbased knowledge of biological processes, systems and mechanisms articulate the integration inherent in human biology, from sub-cellular to cellular, within and between systems exhibit knowledge of the broader scientific context in which their own subject specialisms are embedded articulate the relations between the various cognate disciplines which contribute to human biology and recognise the importance of other disciplines to the understanding of human biology (also fits 3.3) evaluate and apply novel developments within the selected subject areas of human biology explain the scientific bases underlying the subject (also fits 3.2) acquire new knowledge and skills from appropriate sources, evaluate and apply them as appropriate apply a wide range of academic skills (research, analysis, synthesis etc.) (also fits 3.2) 3.2 RESEARCH LITERACY interpret experimental data in terms of current paradigms in the human biosciences critically apply the scientific method to experimental design communicate their ideas and results, both verbally and in writing, with clarity and in a manner appropriate to a given audience design and critically evaluate experimental procedures and take an analytical approach to problem solving 3.3 CRITICAL SELF-AWARENESS AND PERSONAL LITERACY apply the skills and intellectual rigour developed during the programme in careers in human biology or postgraduate study Updated May

6 1. either pass at least 6 module credits during the year, or, if on placement, complete specific requirements set for the placement; 2. by the end of the year, normally be in a position to proceed with a programme which, if passed, would satisfy the requirements for an award within the remaining period of normal full-time study for that award. Such a programme should not normally require more than 10 modules to be passed during any full-time year and normal prerequisite requirements should be met In order to satisfactorily graduate with a BSc Hons Huma Biology degree, a student must meet the University requirements for number and level of modules completed, to include all necessary requirements for, alternative and acceptable modules. Course diagrams are included in the programme handbook. 4.3 PROFESSIONAL REQUIREMENTS None applicable. SECTION 5: TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT Discussions between programme staff teams have ensured that programmes are characterised by an appropriate breadth and depth of content that is informed by relevant benchmark statements, the requirements of employers and the latest research. They include a variety of teaching, learning and assessment methods that are informed by contemporary practice in science teaching in higher education. All modules make use of the Brookes Virtual (Moodle) Learning Environment (typically for locating module resources, but often also for quizzes, class tests and coursework submissions), and most lectures are presented using PowerPoint. Assessment methods include examinations, essays, reviews, laboratory/field notebooks, scientific reports, posters and oral presentations. Reflective learning is encouraged through use of self, peer or staff formative feedback on assignments, group work and project work, and reflective diaries. Co-ordinated implementation of the University Assessment Compact steers student progress towards programme outcomes and simultaneously offers a diverse experience of assessment types. There is balance within and between modules, to insure equity in module workloads and to allow the development of a broad and relevant range of knowledge and professional skills. The Department is committed to providing students with clear assessment criteria, and with useful and timely feedback on all their work. The quality of academic provision for students will continue to be assessed regularly by programme teams, principally through annual student evaluation of each module, and through critical evaluation of the annual external examiner reports. Dissemination and encouragement of good practice will continue to be facilitated through staff development activities and operation of peer enhancement of teaching and learning scheme. Knowledge and understanding in many areas of science represented by programmes within the Department are rapidly advancing. Staff ensure that their teaching is kept up-to-date by integrating, where appropriate, the latest research findings in their lectures. Articles from primary research journals are featured in student reading lists, particularly at level 6, and students are encouraged to use primary research journals in preparing assignments. Research-active staff often give topic-specific lectures that focus on their research interests. Students also have the opportunity to attend weekly research-focused seminars delivered by members of staff or invited speakers. The standards that are expected in research are also widely taught and practised, and students who wish to develop a research-orientation to their studies may do so through studying modules included in a specified research pathway. The level 6 modules, in particular, provide opportunities for students to undertake substantial research-type activities (e.g., drafting a research proposal, consultancy activity, final year project) and to engage in independent learning and development within a supported environment (e.g. keeping reflective diaries, final year project). Updated May
7 Cross-cultural capability and responsible citizenship are encouraged and nurtured in our programmes in a number of ways: the use in teaching of international text books and journals that expose UK students to non-uk perspectives; study abroad opportunities; international staff exchanges and visits that expose students to different cultural perspectives; the presence of international students on our programmes; the use of group-work to facilitate cultural interaction between home and international students and the inclusion of global perspectives within the curriculum encourages students to think beyond the traditional confines of science and engage with a wide range of science-based issues from different cultural perspectives. The programme handbook provides a commentary for students on how the Graduate Attributes are developed through the programme. In addition, students can expect to be introduced to the concept of Graduate Attributes during induction, and will have tutorial discussions with their academic advisor, particularly in their first year, which will focus on identifying module content and activities leading to their acquisition of Graduate Attributes, and their experience of them.

8 SECTION 7: PREPARATION FOR EMPLOYMENT As scientists, all human biology graduates are at an advantage in the general career environment. In addition, with a firm grounding in physiology, biochemistry and cell and molecular sciences, human biology graduates are well prepared for careers in industry, biological organisations, college and university research and teaching, as well as medical and allied fields. Employment prospects are varied. About half of our graduates are appointed in the science sectors, and recent graduates have gone on to medical school, become forensic scientists or taken research posts in companies or academia. The human biology graduate is also eminently well-qualified for a career in medical writing, as an exercise physiologist or as an immunology research scientist. Due to the broad nature of our Human Biology degree, more than 20% of graduates go on to further study including second degrees, PGCEs, MScs and PhDs. Graduates have specialised in a wide range of subjects such as physiotherapy, medicine, nursing, biotechnology, psychology and plant cell biology. The programme area Employers Liaison Committee is held regularly and incorporates representatives from the local Biosciences sector and the NHS. In addition the students are encouraged to attend weekly departmental seminars where visiting researchers present a range of relevant research topics. Visiting lecturers and specialists also deliver lectures and seminars within the modules with the clinical modules often being co-delivered by clinical scientists and physiologists. Updated May
