This degree builds on your knowledge of human biology. You'll specialise in the metabolic and cellular changes associated with cancer at a molecular level. Investigate the mechanisms of intra and intercellular signalling. Explore tumour formation and disease progression and analyse contemporary treatment strategies. If you want specialist knowledge in cancer pathology, this is the degree for you. You will investigate the progression of cancer, building on your in-depth knowledge of human biology and immunology. In your second and third year, you will specialise your studies. You will focus on the metabolic and cellular changes associated with cancer development and progression. We want you to understand cancer at a molecular level and use this knowledge to explore contemporary treatment options. If you are inquisitive and curious, you will thrive with us. Our team of academic and technical staff will interact with you during and after your studies. They are passionate about helping you achieve your ambitions. While studying, you will develop your scientific knowledge and employability. Our focus on transferable and multidisciplinary skills give you a range of employment options when you graduate. We give you the opportunity to take your learning to the next level with placements. Gain hands-on experience both at the university and in local industrial laboratories. We will support you to organise short placements throughout your studies. Alternatively, you can choose to take part in a year-long external placement in industry. Our Applied Biosciences courses have distinct award titles but these titles represent a specialism, not a separate degree course. The Applied Biosciences suite will share all first year modules with the existing Biomedical Science degree and have the same entry criteria. You will be able to swap between courses at the end of your first year, but once you start your second year, you will need to remain on your chosen specialist route. Once you have studied all subjects in your first year, you can make an informed choice about which area you enjoy and would like to specialise in.

Modules may include: Level 1 Modules: Professional Skills for Biomedical Sciences Human Anatomy and Physiology Biological Molecules and Reactions Cellular Biology Biochemistry and Metabolism Introductory Microbiology and Immunology Level 2 Modules Research Methods and Professional Practice Haematology, Immunology and Transfusion Science Clinical Biochemistry Molecular Biology Cellular Signalling and Communication Cellular Pathology (all 20 credit modules) Level 3 Modules Research Project (40 credits) Cancer Biology Molecular Immunology Biology of Disease
