Physiology Degree Overview - University College Cork

Physiology is the study of function in living systems. This includes how organisms, organ systems, organs, cells, and bio-molecules carry out the chemical or physical functions that exist in a living system.
Physiologists perform experiments to figure out the details of how individual components of the body work, and also how they all link together to help us function.Because Physiology is a particularly strong degree for teachers, some of our graduates have opted to study for a Postgraduate Diploma in Education.Many Physiology graduates find direct employment in either pharmaceutical or medical-related professions and utilise the scientific knowledge/skills that they learned during the degree programme
