Medical Science

Open the door to a rewarding scientific career. You'll focus on the science that underpins modern medicine. Understand how a
healthy human body works, how disease develops and how normal function can be restored. This course is accredited by the
Royal Society of Biology* owning to its academic excellence in bioscience and research.

The 21st century presents many health challenges. Studying Medical Science gives the desirable analytical and laboratory skills; provides knowledge and
understanding of the human body; how it performs optimally, and the impact of disease. It will prepare you for work in various
professional environments or the healthcare sector, where a scientific contribution is made to areas involving the diagnosis,
treatment, and prevention of disease.

This broad science certificate will help you identify and solve problems, lead, and managepeople and be confident in scientific communication; all highly valued competencies across the health sectors giving a strong advantage in the employment market. The teaching and learning environments are interactive and versatile involving structured small group learning, team-based learning, lectures, seminars, online learning, and guest lecturers sharing their expertise. You’ll acquire your laboratory skills in a state-of-the-art level two category SuperLab. You’ll benefit from our innovate teaching and assessment methods to optimise your learning experience and development as scientist.
