Biomedicine

About this programme

A degree in Biomedicine offers a deep understanding of human health, disease, and medical research. With career pathways in research, pharmaceuticals, and clinical settings, biomedicine provides students with the skills to contribute to medical advancements and improve lives through science and technology. Biomedicine is an interdisciplinary field that applies biological and medical principles to understand, diagnose, manage and treat diseases. It focusses on how cells, organs and systems function in the body. Our three-year Biomedicine BSc is ideal for students interested in gaining a broad knowledge of human life processes within the context of health and disease. You will study topics in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics and physiology - which are at the heart of modern medical and health research. These subjects are taught with a particular emphasis on the molecules and mechanisms fundamental to life processes and how these are disrupted by disease. This research-led biomedicine degree is an ideal basis for a host of careers across the biomedical, research, biotechnology and pharmaceuticals sectors, offering you the scientific knowledge, practical lab skills and career-ready mindset to succeed. And, because you will build your skills and competence in experimental design, data recording, analysis, presentations, effective project management, teamwork and communication, you will have developed the highly transferable skills valued by employers both within the sciences and in broader fields such as marketing, finance and management.
