Two National Subject Profiles of the student learning experience in Biochemistry and Microbiology. The profiles present a detailed overview of the current state of higher education in Biochemistry and Microbiology focusing particularly on the factors which have a direct impact on the students' learning experiences in undergraduate and taught postgraduate programmes.
- numbers and types of courses
- entry requirements
- curriculum outline contents
- teaching and assessment methods
- support systems for students
- industrial placements
- graduates' future career paths
These profiles provide an extensive amount of information for the bioscience community. They should become a helpful source of data for teaching staff administrators and students in biochemistry and microbiology and provide a baseline from which to track trends impacting on teaching of biosciences. Information collected may also be of interest to government agencies and employers.
