Develop an understanding of the breadth and depth of modern biomedical science from leading researchers in this area. Benefit from their knowledge of the latest biomedical science developments of vaccines, antibiotic treatments and stem cell therapies and put this theory into practice through structured research projects in laboratories. Students will focus their studies on the human body at the molecular, cellular and whole body levels, and the disciplines of anatomy, biochemistry and cell biology, physiology, developmental biology, microbiology, pharmacology and neuroscience. By integrating studies across various discipline areas, graduates develop a well-grounded, wide range of knowledge and enter a rewarding career in a range of industries.
