- Apply the latest research and advances in technology to understanding, diagnosis and treatment of disease.
- Undertake a research project in an area of your choice.
- Take the opportunity to apply for a year long placement where you will apply your knowledge and skills to a working situation.
- Transfer to the MSci route for a specialist year of research intensive study working alongside our internationally recognised researchers.
You will gain an in-depth understanding of biomedical science and its application in medicine, research and the scientific industry. This is an academically challenging course which will develop your practical and digital skills preparing you for a career as a graduate scientist.
If you don't meet the entry requirements for our BSc (Hons) courses, or you’d like extra preparation before starting degree-level study, we recommend you join the foundation year. You will build your confidence in biology, chemistry and maths, and apply your theoretical knowledge in practical laboratory sessions. You will also familiarise yourself with Sheffield Hallam’s staff and facilities — ensuring that you are fully prepared to begin at degree level study.
