PBS at Queens’
The three eight-week terms of the first year revolve around lectures, supervisions and written work. Within PBS, in later years the amount of practical work increases to include the undergraduate's chosen research project in the third year.
The students are welcoming and friendly while the College is full of beautiful places to study. Jane Garrison, Director of Studies, is so supportive, kind, and encouraging, making Queens’ College a wonderful environment to study PBS.
