Course summary

This degree provides a fascinating insight into the biological science behind health, disease and development of medical therapies. It covers a diverse range of subjects, starting with fundamental aspects of cell and molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, pharmacology and genetics, progressing to the investigation of the disease process, including research, diagnosis and treatment.

Students will develop a solid understanding of human health and disease, informed by the latest research, equipping them with in-depth scientific knowledge, critical analysis, practical laboratory and transferrable employability skills. Students will focus their learning in Year 3 by choosing one of our tailored scientific pathways, graduating in one of several specialisms. Currently, these include Biomedical Science with: Anatomy; Cell and Molecular Biology; Genomics; Immunity and Infection; Medical Ethics and Law; Physiology and Pharmacology; Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuroscience.

On this course, there is an opportunity to undertake a Professional Training Year within a related biomedical sector, such as industry, research, government or the NHS. There is also the opportunity to transfer to Year 3 of City St George's four-year Biomedical Science MSci at the end of the second year, subject to academic achievement and available places.
