J7 Biotechnology course codes

By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting J7 means biotechnology, in the technologies area (J). 20 courses at 8 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 120 and 144 UCAS points; 5 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often AAB. Another 3 joint honours courses carry J7 as their second subject.
