Course Overview

Biomedical scientists are at the forefront of our modern healthcare system working in partnership with medical practitioners and healthcare professionals, to perform many different roles in the NHS, as well as in academia and the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors. As a biomedical scientist, you are likely to be involved in diagnosing diseases, supporting the work of clinical departments, and developing and evaluating the next generation of treatments that could improve patient outcomes. A biomedical science degree also provides the foundation for graduate-entry programs, including medicine, dentistry, or the recently established Physician Associate (PA) program for clinical practice within the NHS. The Royal Society of Biology has accredited this programme following an independent and rigorous assessment. Accredited degree programmes contain a solid academic foundation in biological knowledge and key skills, and prepare graduates to address the needs of employers.
