Activities
The department of Animal and Plant Sciences is one of the largest departments in the UK devoted to the study of whole organism biology. We form one of three parts of the School of Biological Sciences, together with the Department of Molecular Biology & Biotechnology, and the Department of Biomedical Sciences, with a combined teaching staff of over 100. Our teaching, informed by our research, covers cells and genes, the behaviour of individuals, and the functioning of populations, communities and ecosystems.In the latest Research Assesment Exercise (RAE 2008), Biological Sciences at Sheffield was ranked joint 3rd in the UK based on average quality score and 3rd in the UK based on the proportion of 'world-leading' (4*) and 'internationally excellent' (3*) research activity (Source: Times Higher Education)
