Overview
Medical Science is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Biomedical Science is regulated, so entry requirements and English levels are set higher than in most subjects and are rarely negotiable. We currently work with 5 universities on this course across 5 cities.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £17,250 to £30,650 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
Entry requirements
Careers opportunities
To work as a biomedical scientist in an NHS laboratory the course must be IBMS accredited and you must complete a registration portfolio, so check both before applying. Without that route the degree still leads into research, industry and diagnostics.
Roles graduates go into
- Biomedical scientist, once registered
- Laboratory or research scientist
- Clinical trials associate
- Quality and validation scientist
- Medical laboratory assistant
- Technical specialist for diagnostics suppliers
Where they work
- NHS pathology laboratories
- Private diagnostics providers
- Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies
- Research institutes and universities
- Public health laboratories
After the course
HCPC registration through an IBMS accredited degree and a completed registration training portfolio.
