项目概述 / Program Summary

Program Description

Biomedical science is the term for the investigations carried out on samples of tissue and body fluids to diagnose disease and monitor the treatment of patients.

A biomedical science degree is highly sought after in NHS pathology centres, forensic science laboratories, research institutions and the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. Successful graduates can benefit from entering a dynamic profession with long-term career prospects in research, specialised laboratory work, education and management.

This course is professionally accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science, which enables graduates to gain the necessary skills and qualifications sought by employers.

Students will study a range of topics including anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, cell biology, microbiology, immunology and more. Throughout the course, you’ll be exploring the analytical skills needed in modern biomedical science, along with research and diagnostic techniques.

Key features

93% of summer 2017 graduates from this course are in work or further study (Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education 2016-17).
This course is professionally accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS), ensuring students receive a well-informed, scientific education and develop practical skills and experience which prospective employers value.
Gain industry experience during an optional placement year – students have worked in NHS pathology centres and at research laboratories including the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and Public Health England.
Strong industry links with NHS pathology centres enable DMU to offer practical and professional work experience opportunities to further develop your understanding of the sector.
Register as a biomedical scientist with the Health and Care Professions Council after a period of clinical laboratory training – this can be completed as part of your optional placement year.
Gain valuable international experience as part of students' studies with our #DMUglobal programme. As part of this, our Biomedical Science students have helped to raise awareness of type 2 diabetes during a trip to Kentucky and taught science to schoolchildren in Bermuda.
Graduates have gone on to work in pathology centres and diagnostic laboratories in both the public and private sectors, as well as in academic and research institutions, and in roles ranging from biomedical scientist to pharmacology technician.
