Overview

About your course BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science is professionally accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science and offers you exciting placement opportunities with our industry partners. The development of advanced laboratory skills are integral to this fascinating degree, which covers the broad areas of human bioscience and diagnostic science. As a Biomedical Science student, you will cover the broad areas of human bioscience and diagnostic science, including medical microbiology, immunology, histology, haematology, medical genetics and cancer alongside basic sciences such as biochemistry, physiology, molecular and cell biology. Laboratory work is an important part of this course, giving you the high-level skills and understanding required of a biomedical scientist by the time you graduate. You may consider taking the more practical applied biomedical sciences route. Acceptance onto this route is by competitive application. If successful, you will spend about 1,000 hours over three years working in a local NHS laboratory and gaining academic credit for your work-based study. This will take the form of long summer blocks in a relevant laboratory with further attendance during your final year of study. If you decide not to take this option we encourage you to undertake a years work placement or a shorter placement between your second and third years to gain experience. One of the advantages of being accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Sciences is that you can join the Institute as an eStudent and have access to their resources to help with your course and career development. They also award a prize to the best biomedical science graduate and to other students who have shown particular promise.
