Bachelors in Biomedical Sciences

The BSc in Biomedical Science programme is designed to give students a grounding in a range of medically related disciplines, including medical laboratory science, pharmacology, biotechnology, molecular biology, and medicine. Students are taught how to apply biology-based science for medical use through research, diagnosis, health monitoring or treatment by developing and/or using advanced diagnostic tools or new therapeutic strategies. The programme has a strong focus on hands-on practical experience, which provides a sound basis for a career at the forefront of medical research, as well as other roles both within and outside the laboratory. In the first year, students will take courses which will extend their knowledge of Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. In the second and third years, students will take core courses and some other selected relevant courses. Students must take six weeks of internship every year (for a total of 18 weeks) following the clinical rotation guide.

Duration: 3 years

Prerequisite
At least five papers in GCE Ordinary level including English and Mathematics and two papers in GCE Advanced level passes with at least one in Biology.
