The BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science programme is specifically designed for students who are interested in the Biological Sciences and its practical applications, particularly in healthcare and research. Through the Biomedical Science programme, students will study life processes,including the structure and function of the human body, to gain an understanding of health and the methods for diagnosing, analysing, and treating disease. This programme also develops transferrable skills such as laboratory techniques, data analysis, interpersonal and teamwork skills, and IT proficiency, preparing the students for further study or employment in the Biomedical Science field. Subjects covered in the programme are broadly similar to the pre-clinical components of a medical degree with the addition of Molecular Biology, Statistics, Pharmacology and Laboratory Management.
