From the intricacies of human physiology to the complex mechanisms of disease progression, our dual accredited Biomedical Science BSc combines expertise across multiple disciplines of biology to solve real-life problems for patients and society at large. With access to state-of-the-art laboratories, opportunities for industry experience, and dedicated employability modules, you'll graduate with the professional, practical and employability skills to pursue careers in healthcare, research, pharmaceuticals, and academia.

Biomedical Science is a multi-and inter-disciplinary subject exploring the human body and the disorders that can affect it. This dynamic area of study examines the intricate workings of the human body, delving into various scientific fields such as the mechanisms of human physiology, the world of microorganisms, the body's immune responses, the complexities of molecular interactions, and the underlying processes of disease development.

At the start of your accredited Biomedical Science degree, you will look at normal physiological function including whole systems and organs right down to a cellular, molecular and genetic level. You will then explore the comprehensive range of diseases and disorders that can affect our body including infective entities such as bacteria and viruses.

By studying the critical distinctions between healthy and diseased bodily functions, you'll develop the knowledge to drive meaningful scientific advancements. These insights can translate into tangible improvements in healthcare, such as creating more precise diagnostic tools, designing sophisticated monitoring technologies, innovating targeted treatment approaches, and exploring novel therapeutic strategies that have the potential to transform medical practice.

The programme will also provide deep insights into the pivotal role of Biomedical Scientists within clinical and diagnostic laboratory settings. You'll examine how these professionals contribute to diverse patient care pathways, while developing a comprehensive understanding of the critical importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and reflective practice.

A comprehensive laboratory programmes runs throughout the course utilising our state-of-the-art David Attenborough Laboratories, where you will develop key skills in diverse biomedical and molecular biology techniques.

To enhance your employability you can undertake a work placement, study abroad for a semester or an international year of study. Shorter optional placement modules provide added flexibility for experiential learning alongside your studies in a range of industries and employer settings, including an education-focused optional module for those interested in a career in teaching.

A range of final year optional modules in areas of cutting-edge biomedical research gives you greater flexibility to tailor the structure and content of your programme to your own interests and career goals.

Typical post-graduate destinations include entry to professions such as medicine, practitioner biomedical scientist, academia, research, the private sector, or roles that include outreach, teaching, and science communication.

Key transferable skills you will acquire include:

Time management, organisation, and reflective practice

Data management and analysis

Communication

Research

Problem-solving and creative thinking

Teamwork

Foundation year

Studying a Foundation Year, for whatever reason, offers an alternative route to Keele, and provides a unique opportunity to better prepare for your chosen degree. That extra year of study can improve your academic skills, expand your subject knowledge and, perhaps most importantly, build your confidence.

Duration of study

3 years or 4 years with international or placement year
