Course summary

The BSc Biomedicine focuses on the vital link between basic science and advances in the understanding and treatment of human health and disease. On this course, you will complete a substantial research project in the areas of molecular, cell and integrative biology, and will be provided with in-depth knowledge of the theoretical background of these topics. You will be well equipped for a wide range of careers within the biological sciences and associated fields allied to medicine.


Why choose this course?

- The BSc Biomedicine is accredited by the Royal Society of Biology, a status recognised by employers and which brings opportunities for paid internships. - Taught by internationally recognised researchers, you will gain an academic grounding in modern medicine and explore biomedical research. - You will develop the technical, intellectual and social skills needed for careers in research, medicine, teaching, and the wider application of scientific knowledge in the workplace.- By choosing certain modules, you can finish with a BSc Biomedicine and Public Health.


What you will learn

The BSc Biomedicine covers a range of disciplines including biochemistry, cell biology, chemistry, drugs and drug discovery, genetics, immunology, microbiology, molecular biology and physiology, with emphasis on how these relate to public health.Whilst enabling development of knowledge of the scientific principles that underpin these key subject areas, this course enables you to gain substantial practical and analytical skills through extensive laboratory experience. Both elements are highly sought after by employers in the biomedical and health sectors.


How you will learn

You will be taught in live face-to-face lectures and classroom activities combined with practical sessions, tutorials and problem-solving classes. The final year of the course is dedicated to the pursuit of a laboratory-based project providing an opportunity for novel research.This course is available to study full- or part-time.


It has a daytime and an evening timetable, so we will contact you nearer to enrolment to confirm your preference of study.


Foundation Year

If you opt for the Foundation Year route, this will fully prepare you for undergraduate study.
