Course Overview

If so, a degree in Biomedical Science could be for you. 

Biomedical scientists have been working tirelessly since the pandemic began to develop diagnostic tests, run COVID testing laboratories, develop vaccines, and support doctors in the urgent research into treatment and prevention strategies for the virus. It is a career at the cutting-edge of medical research.

Biomedical Science is the in-depth study of human biology in both normal and disease states. 

You will learn both current techniques used in the study of human diseases in the NHS, and innovative technologies under development for experimental treatments.
