IGCSE Human Biology – exams not included

Human Biology is the study of the structure and function of the human body, looking at how the human species evolved, how we change over our lifespan, how we adapt to life stressors, and how our bodies are influenced by food, nutrition, disease, and environmental factors.

But for everything we know, there’s so much more to discover, such as immunology and evolution.

This course will develop your knowledge of human biology, with a focus on the medical aspects of human processes, examining how the human species evolved, how we change over our lifespan, and how external factors affect us. You learn about the physiology of the major systems of the body, the impact of nutrition and the environment on health, and human development and evolution.

Modules

Your course starts with two short units that cover everything you need to know about IGCSE Human Biology, all about the exams, and includes some great advice on how to successfully study online.

Frequently Asked Questions

IGCSE Human Biology is an internationally recognised qualification – equivalent to GCSE - that delves into the fascinating world of how our bodies work. Students explore the building blocks of life, delve into the intricacies of organ systems, and uncover the processes that keep us alive and thriving. From cells and tissues to nutrition and disease, this course fosters a deeper understanding of ourselves and our place in the biological world, laying a strong foundation for further studies or personal curiosity.
IGCSE Human Biology can be endlessly fascinating because it peels back the layers of what makes you, you. Explore the intricate systems that power your every move, unravel the mysteries of disease and immunity, and journey from microscopic cells to complex organs. Imagine deciphering the code of heredity, understanding the symphony of hormones, or unravelling the marvels of the brain. If you're curious about how your body works, thrives, and sometimes falters, this course promises a treasure trove of discoveries, igniting your passion for the incredible machine you inhabit.
Beyond the captivating knowledge of how your body works, IGCSE Human Biology equips you with a valuable toolbox of transferable skills. You'll sharpen your analytical and problem-solving abilities through practical investigations, learn to interpret and evaluate scientific data with critical thinking, and hone your communication skills by explaining complex concepts clearly. Additionally, you'll develop your research skills by finding and analysing information and cultivate a scientific mindset that approaches challenges with curiosity and a thirst for understanding. These skills are not only valuable for further science studies but also transferable to various academic and professional pursuits.
An IGCSE in Human Biology opens doors to diverse possibilities. It serves as a strong foundation for further science studies like A-Levels or BTECs in healthcare, paving the way for careers in medicine, nursing, biotechnology, or research. Additionally, it equips you with valuable analytical and research skills sought after in various fields like education, environmental science, forensics, and even business. Even if you don't pursue a science-related career, the knowledge gained fosters a deeper understanding of your own health and wellbeing, making informed choices throughout your life. Ultimately, an IGCSE in Human Biology empowers you with knowledge, skills, and a curious mind, ready to explore and contribute to the world around you.
