Biomedical Science

About this course

Biomedical science provides the scientific foundations that underpin clinical medicine and healthcare, applying the principles of biology, chemistry and physiology to the study of health, disease and the laboratory techniques used in diagnosis and treatment. It is one of the most important disciplines in the healthcare system, providing the technical expertise behind blood tests, tissue analysis, microbiology cultures, genetic diagnostics and the many other laboratory investigations that clinicians depend on every day. Biomedical scientists work at the interface between fundamental science and clinical application, where precision, accuracy and technical skill are essential. At Manchester Metropolitan University, this three-year full-time programme includes a sandwich year and a work placement, giving you direct experience in professional laboratory settings as part of your degree.
