    About

    About this course

    Our Institute of Biomedical Science accredited programme is designed in collaboration with Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. With major input from NHS professionals, your course is guaranteed real-world relevance and authenticity.

    Biomedical science applies biological principles to medicine. You’ll explore the physiological processes and functions of the human body to appreciate disease processes, diagnosis and treatment. And learn about the underlying causes of diseases and how this knowledge can be applied to diagnose and treat them.

    Experience taught laboratory practicals across first and second year to master the key cellular, molecular, biochemical and microbiology techniques required to work in Biomedical Science Pathology labs, industry and research. In the final year, you will undertake your own independent research project, allowing you to pull together the practical and academic skills you have learnt whilst on the programme.

    Our strong links with industry mean you’ll get plenty of opportunities to refine the key skills demanded by employers. You’ll benefit from our excellent relationships with a range of organisations including local biotechnology companies, research units and local hospitals, and be at the forefront of advancements in healthcare and Biomedical Science.

    After completion of this accredited programme, you will be in an ideal position to apply to be a Trainee Biomedical Scientist and complete your HCPC portfolio required to become a registered Biomedical Scientist.

    Scheduled study hours and how you’re assessed

    Throughout your degree, you’re expected to study for 1,200 hours per year. That’s based on 200 hours per 20 credit module. And it includes scheduled hours, time spent on placement and independent study. How this time is divided across the year varies and depends on the module you are studying.

    How you'll be assessed depends on the course you study, and the modules you choose. You may be assessed through a mix of examinations, coursework, presentations and group projects.
