Course summary

Whether it's investigating a type of cancer or understanding the cause of food poisoning, biomedical scientists play a crucial role in diagnosing disease and evaluating effective treatment. Without biomedical scientists, hospitals couldn't treat patients effectively. This biomedical science course is ideal for those who would like to work as a biomedical scientist in the NHS or private laboratories.

On this course:

gain an in-depth understanding of the causes of disease and the practical ways in which they can be investigated in the laboratory
learn how to test clinical samples, analyse data, and discover new ways to diagnose, treat, or prevent a disease
share a common first year with other bioscience degrees. This is perfect for those not yet decided on exactly what area to specialise in. You have the option to switch to a similar degree course at the end of your first year if you wish.
The course is accredited by IBMS, the professional body for biomedical scientists in the UK.
