Course Summary

Discover how advances in biomedical sciences have helped in the diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of illness on this industry accredited course. At the end of your first year of study, you’ll be able to choose to continue your multidisciplinary studies and gain a BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences award. Alternatively, you could choose to study for a combined degree award by specialising in one of our four specific pathways: **BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences (Medical Biochemistry Pathway)** Study biochemical interactions within the body, and the diagnosis of biochemically related diseases. **BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences (Molecular Biotechnology Pathway)** By looking at the biological processes involving genetics and gene technology, you’ll learn about the molecular advances in the treatment of disease and how treatments are developed. **BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences (Pharmacological Sciences Pathway)** Discover how different drugs are used for the treatment of diseases and what effect they have on the body. You’ll also develop your understanding of pharmacological principles and how they inform the development of drugs. **BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences (Medical Microbiology Pathway)** Study the types of pathogen that cause infectious disease, and the strategies they use to attack the body. You’ll learn how to diagnose disease and discover the treatments available. You’ll also look at the global burden of infectious disease and the worldwide initiatives underway to try and control this challenging threat.
