You’ll develop a broad understanding of human biosciences and its significance in the contemporary world – and how you can apply that knowledge in the workplace.You’ll study human function and structure in depth, the causes of health conditions in humans, their diagnosis and their prevention. Typical areas of study include human physiology, cell and molecular sciences, neuroscience, how drug treatments work, as well as the effects of infections and how we diagnose them. In our specialist laboratories, we’ll also train you in the various scientific techniques used to study human function and health from a cell to a whole-body level.Group study brings vital teamwork and communication skills, while in your final year you’ll get the chance to focus and develop your academic interests through an independent piece of research working with one of our expert researchers.
