Course summary
What you will study: In your first year, you’ll study topics that are fundamental to biomedical science, including bacteriology, biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, human physiology, microbiology and physiology, ensuring you have a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of your degree. During your second year, you will build on what you have learnt in your first year, and explore topics with a greater clinical focus, such as pathology, molecular biology, clinical biochemistry, and pharmacology. In your third year, you’ll select modules that explore topics such as advanced pharmacology, circadian rhythms, immunology, systems biology and toxicology. You’ll study these alongside compulsory modules investigating cancer pathogenesis and treatment, the epidemiology of infectious diseases, our immune system and immunohaematological diseases. You’ll also get the opportunity to work alongside a supervisor to conduct your own scientific research project, performing experiments and critically evaluating data and literature. If you have chosen to do an integrated masters, you will complete an additional research-focused year of study that includes an advanced research project and training in scientific management and analytical skills. This will prepare you for a technical research career in industry or academia.
