Become an expert in the Biomedical Sciences, a rapidly-growing area, developing solutions to a wide range of challenges linked to maintaining health and wellbeing through every stage of life. You’ll gain an integrated knowledge of the human body; how its organs, tissues and cells work together to keep you healthy, and what goes wrong in disease.<br/><br/>Explore cutting edge research in areas such as regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, drug discovery, cancer biology and dementia. You will be part of an investigative-based inspirational and engaging learning experience, informed by our research, and delivered by world leading academics.<br/><br/>Staff in our school are leaders in Biomedical Sciences disciplines that encompass anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, neuroscience, biochemistry and microbiology, with many working in conjunction with other disciplines such as medical engineering, advanced materials science, computing and robotics.<br/><br/>Our focus will be on making you workplace ready. You’ll undertake an independent capstone or culminating research project, bringing together the knowledge, skills and attributes developed throughout your degree.<br/><br/>This 3 year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, subject to suitable academic performance and availability. You would study advanced research topics and undertake your own extended research project within one of the major research laboratories in the School of Biomedical Sciences or an appropriate period of work based practice.<br/><br/>**Course highlights:**<br/>- Designed to give a broad scientific foundation and key graduate skills for those interested in biomedical sciences.<br/><br/><br/>- Explore cutting edge biomedical research delivered by world-leading researchers.<br/><br/><br/>- Delivered using inspirational, engaging and inclusive approaches. Develop the key skills and attributes you will need to become one of the next generation of thinkers, innovators and leaders, equipped to make a positive difference in a complex and ever-changing interconnected world.<br/><br/><br/>- Experimental skills modules throughout the first 2 years train you to identify problems, design and conduct experiments to find answers to key biomedical questions.<br/><br/><br/>- The opportunity to undertake an independent capstone research project under the supervision of a field-leading academic, further developing the key skills and attributes that will set you apart in both the competitive graduate job market or when seeking to commence a PhD.<br/>

UCAS TariffNot Accepted Scottish HigherNot Accepted Access to HE DiplomaBSc: Pass 60 credits overall with 45 credits at Level 3, graded at D39M6P0 including distinctions in biology and mathematics or chemistry. Accept Access courses in Applied Science and Science. Will also consider (depending on subject content): biochemical sciences biological and health science biological sciences biosciences combined sciences life and biological science physical sciences MBiol: We do not accept Access to HE. International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme34 BSc: 34 (with 17 at higher level) including 6 in higher level biology or chemistry and another science or science-related subject at higher level. MBiol: 35 (with 18 at higher level) including 6 in higher level biology or chemistry, and another science or science-related subject at higher level. Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016)DDM BSc: BTEC extended diploma entry requirements: DDM plus A/B in A-level biology or chemistry. The preferred BTEC qualification subject is Applied Science (other subjects may be accepted). Applicants with BTEC Subsidiary Diploma qualifications must normally have at least 2 A-levels and at least one of these should be biology or chemistry (plus another science or science-related subject depending on the BTEC subject). MBiol: We do not accept BTEC qualification. Leaving Certificate - Higher Level (Ireland) (first awarded in 2017)H2,H2,H2,H2,H3,H3 BSc: H2,H2,H2,H2,H3,H3 including H2 in biology or chemistry, and another science or science-related subject at higher level. MBiol: H2,H2,H2,H2,H2,H2 including biology or chemistry, and another science or science-related at higher level. Scottish Advanced HigherBSc: Advanced Higher: 5 x Highers AABBB, with AA-AB in 2 Advanced Highers including Biology and another science or science-related subject. General Studies and Critical Thinking excluded. MBiol: Advanced Higher: 5 x Highers AABBB, with AA in 2 Advanced Highers including Biology and another science or science-related subject. General Studies and Critical Thinking excluded. We accept the following: Science subjects: biology, human biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics. Science-related subjects: geography, PE, psychology, use of maths and statistics. Scottish Higher: Scottish Highers not accepted on their own. Cambridge International Pre-U Certificate - PrincipalD3,D3,M1 BSc: D3/D3/M1 including D3 in biology or chemistry plus another science or science-related subject. Global Perspectives excluded. MBiol: D3/D3/D3 including D3 in biology or chemistry plus another science or science-related subject. Global Perspectives excluded. When an applicant is taking Global Perspectives this can be considered alongside Pre-U subjects and may attract an alternative offer in addition to the standard offer. This would be D3/M1/M1 and grade D3 in Global Perspectives (BSc applicants) or D3/D3/M1 and grade D3 in Global Perspectives (MBiol applicants). Extended ProjectApplicants offering an EPQ or IPQ qualification will receive a standard offer, as shown above, plus an alternative offer. The alternative offer would be ABB plus grade A in EPQ / IPQ. Subject specific requirements are still valid. A levelA,A,B BSc: AAB MBiol: AAA Including biology or chemistry, plus another science or science-related subject. Critical thinking and general studies excluded. We accept the following: Science subjects: biology, human biology, chemistry, mathematics, PE and physics. Science-related subjects: geography, psychology, use of maths and statistics. Applicants taking a Science A-level (in England) will be required to achieve a pass in the practical element in addition to the standard A-level grade requirement. When an applicant is taking the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) or the Cambridge International Project Qualification (Cambridge IPQ) this can be considered alongside A-levels and may attract an alternative offer in addition to the standard offer. If you are taking A-levels, this would be ABB at A-level and grade A in the EPQ (BSc applicants) or AAB and grade A in the EPQ (MBiol applicants). T LevelNot Accepted |
