About this course

Biomedical science is the study of the biological and chemical processes that underlie health, disease, and the human body's response to both. It encompasses cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, immunology, pharmacology, and pathology, providing the scientific foundation on which clinical medicine, drug development, and medical diagnostics are built. Without biomedical scientists, hospitals could not diagnose disease from blood samples, pharmaceutical companies could not develop new treatments, and the basic research that drives medical advances would not exist. At the University of Reading this four-year programme includes a professional experience placement, giving you the opportunity to spend time working in a relevant professional setting, whether in a hospital laboratory, a pharmaceutical company, a research institute, or another healthcare or science organi
