A big focus is how scientists use laboratory tests to support patient diagnosis. You will learn about the structure and function of tissues and organs in normal and disease states. You’ll link your expert knowledge of biology and chemistry to understand biochemical pathways and their influence in disease development. You’ll explore haematology, microbiology and blood transfusion techniques that form the basis of modern medical diagnostics. In other words, students will literally learn how to save lives! Learners have 20 hours of contact time, with lectures and workshops taking up about 6-10 hours per week.
Students have the opportunity to undertake a placement year or a year abroad between the second and final year. The Careers and Employment Service provides support for students in finding a placement opportunity. Some partner institutions for the year abroad stipulate a minimum overall grade at first year in order for a student to enroll on their programme.
This degree holds accreditation from the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS) and the Royal Society of Biology. Students who complete an IBMS portfolio during the placement year, which is successfully verified, receive the award of Applied Biomedical Science.
