Biomedical Sciences with Integrated Foundation Year

About this programme

Build your future in human health and disease with our BSc Biomedical Sciences. Join the Integrated Foundation Year to boost your skills and prepare for a degree focused on health, diagnostics, medical research and beyond. Successful completion of the Foundation Year also allows transfer to BSc Biochemistry, BSc Medical Biochemistry or BSc Genetics degrees, giving even broader opportunities. Biomedical science knowledge is advancing rapidly, from gene therapies to identifying risk factors for stroke. This flexible degree lets you shape your studies around areas like cell biology, neuroscience, and clinical topics. Get hands-on experience through expert practical teaching and a Foundation Year project. You’ll also develop scientific writing, numeracy, and experimental design skills. You’ll look for answers to questions like: How does the body function, and what changes during illness? How can gene therapy help treat rare diseases? And what can genetics reveal about tackling drug-resistant epilepsy or age-related conditions? Learn in small groups from leading researchers and NHS clinicians. Accredited by the Royal Society of Biology, our degree includes real-world, skills-based assessments and strong personal support. Graduates pursue careers across pharma, healthcare, science communication, education and much more. We sometimes make changes to our courses to improve your experience. If this happens, we’ll let you know as soon as possible. Global and Planetary Health is built around global issues. Each topic will embody issues of global importance and be based on authe
