Course summary

This three-year apprenticeship programme is ideal if you are working within local trusts or healthcare organisations and your employer will support you as an apprentice this BSc degree.

Our healthcare science degree with a specialism in cardiac physiology is quite rare in the UK. And this is the only degree apprenticeship course, covering this subject, in London and the South East.

You'll develop practical skills at our new facilities, and learn from teaching staff, highly experienced in the industry. You will continue to work for your employer and at cardiology departments in London and the Southeast NHS, continuing to develop clinical skills.

What you will gain

This course is designed to meet the demands of the Department of Health's Modernising Scientific Careers programme so you develop the specific skills that are in short supply – and in high demand.

Upon successful completing of this degree apprenticeship, you will gain:

  • A BSc degree in Healthcare Science (Cardiac Physiology)
  • An apprenticeship certificate confirming you have met the national apprenticeship standard for full occupational competence as a Healthcare Science professional specialising in Cardiac Physiology.

What you will learn

Covering everything from diagnostics and monitoring to analytical and intervention procedures, youll gain an expert understanding of the heart, how it functions, and how to provide treatment to patients of all ages. This degree will give you knowledge of cardiac physiology and the many forms of patient testing and treatments.

Throughout your studies, you will develop your skills in state-of-the-art laboratories using professional equipment.

We will help you put theory into practice at our brand-new West Stand facility where you will be based with other healthcare science students. You will be the first cohort to experience this exciting £23 million redevelopment which has created a state-of-the-art educational and high-performance centre for teaching and research excellence.

To develop your knowledge and skills you will be using facilities such as the cardiology practical lab and cardiology simulation suite. You'll be using revolutionary technology to create simulations, with the latest virtual and augmented reality.

We improve healthcare for future generations through pioneering research that saves lives. You will become an independent learner by leading your own research projects in a specialised area of interest.

This is the perfect course to continue your professional development in the workplace with guidance from your workplace tutor. As an apprentice, you will:

  • Have the chance to experience real-life work situations through planned practice placements
  • Learn about work ethics, professional conduct, and the standard practices in this vital sector through daily interaction with your colleagues
  • Develop transferable skills like teamwork, communication, task management, problem-solving, and decision-making
