Biomedical Science

About this course

Biomedical Science is the discipline that underpins the laboratory-based investigation of human disease, providing the scientific and technical foundation for clinical diagnosis, monitoring of treatment, and research into the mechanisms by which illness develops. Biomedical scientists analyse patient samples in hospital and clinical laboratories, producing reliable data that clinical teams use to diagnose conditions ranging from infections and blood disorders to cancer and genetic disease. It is a discipline that requires both rigorous scientific training and the professional precision that patient care demands. At Glasgow Caledonian University, this four-year, full-time degree teaches you to detect signs of illness through laboratory analysis, monitor the progress of treatment, and understand how disease develops and progresses at a cellular and molecular level. You will develop compet
