Biomedical Science (including a Foundation Year)

About this course

Biomedical science is the application of biological and scientific principles to the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of human disease. It encompasses the laboratory sciences that underpin clinical medicine, including clinical biochemistry, haematology, immunology, microbiology, histopathology, and medical genetics. Biomedical scientists are the professionals who carry out the laboratory investigations that inform most clinical decisions, from blood tests and tissue biopsies to microbiological cultures and genetic analyses. The discipline sits at the intersection of scientific research and healthcare delivery, making it both intellectually rich and socially essential. At the University of Chester this four-year full-time programme includes a foundation year, which provides the academic preparation needed before the main degree begins. The foundation year is designed for students
