Program Description

At Brunel, we understand that your interest in biomedical sciences at this stage may be very broad and perhaps you're not ready to specialize. For this reason, we have made the bachelor in Biomedical Sciences (BSc) flexible.

As you continue through your bachelor in Biomedical Sciences (BSc) flexible, you can pick your own options and tailor your course to fit your interests. You can even switch over to a specialist pathway in the second year so there's no need to feel pressurised to commit to a specialist area yet.

The Royal Society of Biology has awarded its accreditation to all of Brunel’s biomedical sciences undergraduate programs. This means you can be confident that the bachelor in Biomedical Sciences (BSc) flexible will prepare you for the working world – and your prospective employers will know this too.

You'll receive a one-year’s membership as an Associate Member once you graduate, integrating you into the sector with access to key contacts and up-to-date knowledge.

Course Content

You'll study a range of areas relating to human health from stem cells and genetic manipulation through to food safety. The content of the programme means that you will graduate with an understanding of the main subject areas in biosciences and medically related research.

Year 1 includes practical lab skills and research skills, alongside a taster of the various pathway options.

Year 2 introduces the biochemical and molecular processes which are altered in various human diseases. You'll also develop your employability skills in the 'Career Skills' study block.

The placement year will follow year 2, if opted for.

In year 3, you're given as much choice as possible to follow your interests. Your only compulsory module will be the 'Final Year Project'. This will be a research project, which allows you to bring together the skills developed during years 1 and 2.

Teaching and Learning

You'll be taught by academics who are actively involved in a wide range of world-leading research. The four main areas of biomedical science research at Brunel are: health and disease, treatments and cures, genomic and epigenomic level, and technology and methodology.

Many of our academics have been involved in making major advances and breakthroughs in human diseases and syndromes. This means you’ll be learning the most up-to-date scientific discoveries in a fast-moving field where our academics teach you cutting-edge research through practical experience.

The biomedical sciences teaching team have created a unique teaching and assessment strategy which has been recognised in an award from the Higher Education Academy. It will allow you to combine your learning over the course of the year and apply knowledge from different study blocks into one assessment, making your education as close to your future real-world career as possible.

We have produced thousands of scientists now making scientific breakthroughs and improving lives across the globe. As a Brunel graduate, you'll be gaining from their reputation and the reputation of the University.
