BSc Medical Physiology and Therapeutics

Biomedical sciences play a vital role in everyone's lives. They help us understand how our bodies work, what can go wrong with our bodies, and how we fix them. Our Medical Physiology and Therapeutics BSc degree, based in Derby, is a chance to learn about the body from its molecular level all the way through to the full complexity of the body as a whole.

Located at the University of Nottingham’s School of Medicine based within the Royal Derby Hospital, you will be taught in our specialist facilities within our purpose-built medical school.

We teach you the medical sciences, with a focus on physiology, pharmacology, pathology, anatomy, immunology, microbiology, and psychosocial topics, through the human biosciences. You also have the option to tailor the course to your needs and interests as you go, through a variety of specialised optional modules. Contact hours with tutors are variable dependent on the modules you choose.

You will benefit from our friendly team of clinical and non-clinical teachers and the strong relationship with our Graduate Entry Medicine and Foundation Year Medicine students who are also based at the Royal Derby Hospital.

We will give you the tools to succeed in your future career.
