Learn about the inner workings of the human body, and take part in world-class research, with our practical BSc Biomedical Science with Professional Experience course. This four-year course includes a professional placement year, which will take place between your second and third year of study.Our biomedical science course was developed in partnership with practising NHS laboratory scientists. All of our lecturers are involved in research and you will be taught by experts in their fields. In the National Student Survey 2023, 98% of our students said teaching staff were good or very good at explaining things.You'll learn about the systems that underpin all living organisms from a cellular, tissue, organ and whole body perspective. On this basis, you will study the diseases that affect each area and the mechanisms that the body uses to combat them. The flexible nature of the course will then allow you to pick specialist modules that match your interests. You will also have the chance to carry out a year-long industrial placement or a paid vacation studentship to gain valuable work and research experience.For more information, please visit our course page: https://www.reading.ac.uk/ready-to-study/study/subject-area/biological-sciences-ug/bsc-biomedical-sciences-with-professional-experience
