Our Biomedical Science degree enables you to explore the sciences related to medicine and in particular, the specialist disciplines of diagnostic Biomedical Science as practised in Health Service Laboratories. Our degree is accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science and is aimed at students wishing to pursue a career in diagnostic laboratory science as biomedical scientists within the NHS, research or management careers in the pharmaceutical industries or academic research.

Biomedical scientists play a key role in improving human health. By exploring life processes in humans they lay the foundations for understanding and investigating health, disease, treatment, and prevention. Biomedical Science at Lincoln offers a broad scientific base, taking a multi-disciplinary approach that incorporates lectures, seminars, and laboratory-based work.

The Biomedical Science (Honours) degree requires an interest in science and technology. You will undertake an in-depth study into human health and explore the causes of disease that have a major global impact at a systems, cellular and molecular level. You will learn how biomedical research is helping researchers and clinicians develop novel therapeutic strategies and inform government health policy.

Accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS), our BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science will cover broad biological principles relating to the normal function of the human body as well as up-to-date training in medical and disease-related topics including pathophysiology, cell pathology, clinical immunology, haematology, microbiology and genetics. Your studies will be complemented by visits to local pathology labs and there is an option to complete a year-long paid placement as part of this course. You’ll also develop your practical skills in our state-of-the-art Bodmer laboratories.

Biomedical science is concerned with the detailed study of the human body, both in health and disease, with emphasis on the diagnosis and understanding of disease states and the mechanisms involved.

With a degree in BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences, you can be part of the fight against critical public health issues such as cancer. The work of biomedical scientists has been crucial in the detection of global viruses, including COVID-19. They’ve also played a key role in the development of vaccines and the testing and development of drugs. 

Our Biomedical Science degree offers an exciting, fast-paced learning experience, giving you a deep understanding of the science behind human health and disease. We teach you how to explore the biological processes that occur in the human body. Practical work and training in our £3.5m science labs feature throughout the course.

Biomedical science is the fundamental building block of medical practice. Without a deep understanding of the body, healthcare practitioners cannot diagnose and treat illnesses and diseases, such as cancer. At Kent, we equip you with the skill set you need for a successful career within the world of biomedical science or beyond.

The Biomedical Science programme will be available as anoption to studentswho have chosen the Bioscience route and after entry through LM123. After successful completion of Year 3of Bioscience,students willhave the option totransfer totheSchool of Medicinefor the 4thand final year of their undergraduate degree. Aftersuccessful completion of all modules,studentswill graduate witha BSc in Biomedical Science.

UB's Biomedical Engineering (BME) program lets you combine your passions for biology, medicine, and engineering in one dynamic major. If you're excited about creating 3D models for cancer care, designing wearable medical sensors, or using AI for cardiac health, this program offers the perfect blend of science, math, and innovation.

The Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Science prepares students with a solid scientific foundation essential for an understanding of human health and disease. The program is the first step in preparing for medical school, physician assistant programs, dental school, pharmacy school, and other professional schools. The Biomedical Science Program is no longer accepting applications for admission into the program at RUC in Roanoke. The program is still offered on the main campus in Radford.

Biomedical Science is a course that covers a huge range of topics, such as cancer screening, diagnosing HIV, blood transfusion, the control of infections, immunology and conditions such as cancer and heart disease. It could be the ideal course for you if you enjoy laboratory investigation and the monitoring of diseases.

Biomedical science is a continually changing, dynamic field with long-term career prospects, including roles in management, research, education and specialised laboratory work. Biomedical scientists focus on how cells, organs and systems function in the human body. Their work is an important element in our understanding and treatment of human diseases.

A biomedical science degree offers diverse career paths in research laboratories, pharmaceutical industries, healthcare settings, government agencies, or academia. You could also proceed to apply to Study Medicine at the Pears Cumbria School of Medicine. Aligned with the educational standards adopted by the Institute of Biomedical Science, our programme provides flexibility to explore various areas of biology based on your interests. Topics include cell and molecular biology, clinical biochemistry, haematology, immunology, genetics, and medical microbiology.

Do you know what you should eat before a soccer match, and more importantly, why you should eat it? Would you like to know why one cell is susceptible to a disease and another one isn't? The bachelor’s program Biomedical Sciences completely revolves around sickness and health.
