Biomedical Science, BSc (Hons)

In our biomedical science degree, students develop a comprehensive understanding of biological principles governing the human body, alongside insights into the underlying biology of various health disorders and their treatments. Building on foundational knowledge, the program advances to specialized areas such as cell and molecular biology, physiology, immunology, microbiology, and diagnostic techniques. In the final year, learners pursue a major project tailored to their interests, supported by state-of-the-art facilities, robust research opportunities, and strong hospital partnerships, preparing graduates for professional careers.The degree holds accreditations from the Institute of Biomedical Science (up to 2024 intake, with reaccreditation pending) and the Royal Society of Biology, ensuring a research-informed education that emphasizes practical skills valued by employers. Highlights include access to high-specification laboratories, a new microscopy suite, and investments like the Dalton building for enhanced teaching. Opportunities for placements, skill tracking, and potential transfer to advanced programs further equip students for roles in clinical or industrial settings.
