Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Biomedical Science (with Placement Year)

Program Overview

Biomedical scientists are essential to healthcare—70% of NHS diagnoses rely on lab results they provide. At DMU, you’ll explore how advanced scientific methods improve human health, tackling key topics like infectious diseases, cancer, and heart disease.

This rapidly evolving field covers everything from organ systems to molecular biology. You’ll develop analytical skills for research and diagnosis, learning how biomedical science drives the treatment of disease. In your final year, focus on clinical lab specialisms and conduct independent research on topics like Alzheimer’s or Zika virus, supported by expert academics.

Boost your career with an optional placement year in clinical or industry labs, gaining hands-on experience and working toward HCPC registration as an NHS Biomedical Scientist.
