Medical Sciences with Foundation and Placement Year 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 often carries additional entry steps such as an interview, a health check or a criminal record check.
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 is £9,500 a year.
If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
