BSc (Hons) Healthcare Science

Healthcare Science involves an in-depth understanding of how the human body functions in both normal and diseased states so healthcare scientists must appreciate how events arising at a molecular, cellular or tissue level can contribute to and also affect health and wellbeing.

Combining practical and theoretical modules, you’ll gain the knowledge you need to make confident, informed decisions about patient care and treatment in a laboratory setting.

Everything you’ll learn is tailored to the NHS, and you’ll spend time each year preparing for an NHS career by learning and working in one of their pathology laboratories. Completion of subsequent modules and final year placement will lead to the award of the degree title BSc (Hons) Healthcare Science.
