Description:

Ever wondered how diseases occur? How genetic disorders lead to abnormalities? Or how microbes evade our immune system? As a biomedical science undergraduate, you’ll study the causes, diagnoses, and treatments of diseases like cancer, blood disorders, and infectious disease. Be inspired to become a biomedical scientist contributing to patient diagnosis. In the UK, the term 'biomedical scientist' is a protected title used by professionals working within the pathology department of a hospital. Our course is accredited by the professional body; the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS). Studying our degree is the first step to becoming a registered biomedical scientist. There is always something new to discover in this innovative field of science.Get hands on experience in our modern science building with great teaching and research laboratories. You’ll be able to use well equipped laboratories spread over five storeys of innovative facilities. You will work alongside researchers, academics, industry specialists and other students.



Our flexible programme introduces you to a range of bioscience topics in your first year before you begin to specialise for your remaining biomedical science studies. If your interests change in the first year, then it’s easy to swap to another bioscience pathway, although you will need to be good at chemistry to switch to our biochemistry degree. This is why we give you the chance to experience a range of modules before committing to the biomedical pathway. We believe in flexibility. We will guide you to find your passion to study what you really love.
