To prepare students for our Biomedical Sciences and Medical Sciences degree, our Foundation Year provides the basic, but essential understanding of biological and chemical principles that underpin the field. During your foundation year, as well as gaining practical laboratory skills and developing your academic skills, youll get a thorough grounding in a variety of topics that underpin degrees in the field of medical sciences. It is an ideal course if you have an interest in Biomedical Sciences and Medical Sciences or a desire to enter a related career but do not currently have the necessary scientific background to enter our 3 year programme.

The Foundation Year is also designed to prepare students for our other undergraduate degree programmes, B102 BSc Biomedical Science, and it is possible to transfer onto one of these programmes, subject to successfully passing the Foundation Year.

Our Medical Sciences degree aims to provide a science programme, related to medicine, with strong professional research elements. Youll receive a firm foundation of scientific teaching, considering human health and disease at a micro and macro level. This enables you to develop, integrate and apply your knowledge at the interface of scientific discovery and clinical practice.

As a graduate, youll be equipped with a broad skill set, making the course an ideal first choice for those interested in a health-based career but who want to keep their options open.
