BSc Medical Physiology
Course Overview
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of human physiology, from ionic mechanisms to the integration of whole body systems. You will develop a deep understanding of how these systems maintain health and how their dysfunction leads to disease, forming a critical foundation for medical research and therapeutic development. The modular structure allows you to tailor your studies to your specific interests within the field.
Key Program Highlights
- Explore function from the ionic and cellular level to whole integrated systems
- Understand the physiological basis of disease and the principles of treatment
- Flexible, modular curriculum to focus on your specific interests
- Develop valuable transferable skills for a wide range of scientific careers
- Identical to the first three years of the MBiolSci programme for seamless progression
