Course Summary

This degree will cover a range of subject areas, including human anatomy, physiology, cell biology, neuroscience, pharmacology and the applied and clinical relevance of this knowledge. Other subjects relevant to careers in lab research, medicine and commercial enterprise in the life sciences will also be covered. The focus will be on providing you the chance to develop your knowledge, skills and understanding of how the human body works, what happens when it goes wrong, and how we currently treat disorders and the potential for novel therapeutics. Applied Medical Sciences is ideally suited for future scientists, biotechnology entrepreneurs and those who desire a more comprehensive understanding of medical science prior to graduate entry into more clinically focused studies such as medicine.   ***Students taking the BSc Applied Medical Sciences course are guaranteed an interview for the Swansea University Graduate Entry Medicine MBBCh programme provided they have chosen the appropriate pathway within the BSc Applied Medical Sciences,  performed satisfactorily on the course, and meet the minimum entry criteria for the MBBCh at the time they apply to it. *** **We guarantee that you will be made a conditional offer for a course at Swansea University. Subject requirements will apply. Please come along to our next Open Day or get in touch for further information.**
