Bachelor of Science Biomedical Science
Course Overview
This Biomedical Science degree provides a comprehensive foundation in human health and disease, from the molecular level to entire organ systems. Students will major in a specialized discipline—Anatomy, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, or Physiology—and develop critical skills through a unique, research-intensive curriculum. The program emphasizes small-group learning and offers exceptional global opportunities, including semester exchanges at leading international universities.
Key Program Highlights
- Specialize in a major discipline: Anatomy, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, or Physiology
- Engage in small-group learning to develop communication, leadership, and teamwork skills
- Undertake a dedicated research project in both your third and fourth year
- Gain global experience with a semester abroad in the USA or Asia
- Learn how drugs interact with the body to treat disease at a molecular level
