A biomedical scientist is a scientist trained in biology, particularly in the context of medicine. These scientists work to gain knowledge on the main principles of how the human body works. They try to find new ways to cure or treat diseases by developing advanced diagnostic tools or therapeutic strategies.
Biomedical science represents an opportunity to put scientific knowledge into practical use. It performs a key role in medical healthcare and offers career satisfaction for many in the profession.
As a biomedical scientist, your skills and qualifications will be recognised across the UK and worldwide.
Our course offers a more general degree than the specialist joint Honours biosciences degree programmes. You’ll follow the same curriculum up to Year 3. Still, instead of specialising in only two biomedical science options, you’ll take modules selected from all four areas, developing a broad understanding of all the biomedical sciences.
