Advanced Higher Biology

Picture

​Advanced Higher Biology covers a wide range of biological topics that build on concepts developed in Higher Biology and Higher Human Biology.  The course content forms the basis for study in applied fields of Biology and further study or employment in areas related to Biology. It also enables you to develop understanding of the ways in which biological principles can be applied to the issues facing the individual and society and fosters positive attitudes to others and the environment. In addition, the course provides opportunities for you to improve your problem solving and investigative skills and develop your practical abilities. This course is excellent preparation for the demands of scientific degree courses.
