Course summary

Our labs were purpose built for us and we even have a Confocal Microscope which is available for research projects if required.

Biomedical science, although well established as a scientific discipline, is also a rapidly advancing subject constantly striving towards improving human health and creating a need for highly skilled biomedical scientists.

This course gives you a broad understanding of the scientific investigation of human health and disease. It covers the key aspects and principles of biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology and physiology and their application to the causes and management of disease.

Your learning is supported by our research teams, who are at the forefront of biomedical research and contribute to all aspects of teaching, both lab and non-lab based.

In second year, students do have the option of undertaking 'Volunteering and Employability'. This can include an element of work placement.

You'll gain the skills and knowledge to develop a career in biomedical science or progress to postgraduate study.

This course is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology.
