Comments about BSc Biomedical Science - At the institution - Coventry - West Midlands

• Objectives
  The application of new biological concepts in medicine is an ever-growing and exciting process. In areas ranging from vaccine development, to understanding cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, or metabolic diseases such as diabetes, developments in molecular, genetic, and cell biological research continue to drive progress in medicine. The Biomedical Science degree focuses on such areas, and provides an ideal route into biomedical research. It is also a suitable qualification for graduate entry into studying Medicine.
• Entry requirements
  General university admissions requirements All applicants must possess a minimum level of competence in English Language and in Mathematics or a Science. A pass at Grade C or above in GCSE English Language and in Mathematics or a Science, or an equivalent qualification, fulfils this requirement. For some courses, requirements are above this University minimum, so you should check the relevant course-specific entry requirements in our hard copy prospectus which you can order online or browse on our online directory. We usually ask for candidates to show a broad base of study at GCSE level (or equivalent) with passes in at least five subjects from a range of disciplines.
