Biomedicine is a broad field of study that concerns itself with the theoretical aspects of medicine and which applies biological and natural science concepts to practice. It has a number of related disciplines such as biochemistry, zoology, anatomy, genetics, physiology, pathology, botany, chemistry and biology. Career opportunities include areas that interact with medicine and health, such as engineering-based fields that solve biological and medical problems. Biomedical scientists work out a range of analytical and practical laboratory tests in order to contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
For students who do not want to be limited to a single academic discipline. UCM offers 150 courses in almost all academic disciplines. The 3-year programme is entirely in English.
University of Essex
Our three-year BSc Molecular Medicine and Biochemistry enables you to study biochemistry alongside modules that address the application of modern molecular techniques to medicine.
University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna
Ziel des Studiums der Biomedizin und Biotechnologie an der Veterinärmedizinischen Universität ist es, die Studierenden mit den wichtigsten Grundlagen von naturwissenschaftlichen und veterinärmedizinischen Fächern als auch molekularen Methoden vertraut zu machen. Die Ausbildung erzieht zum interdisziplinären und problemorientierten Arbeiten und ermöglicht den Absolventen, die problemlose Integration in eine wissenschaftliche Projektgruppe. Die Studierenden werden befähigt, ihre erworbenen Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten sowohl im berufsadäquaten Umfeld anzuwenden, als auch sich in anderen Berufsfeldern zurechtzufinden und zu etablieren.
Jacobs University Bremen
Biochemistry is the study of the molecules and chemical processes in living organisms. Cell Biology studies the structure and physiology of cells, their component parts, and their interactions with the environment. At Jacobs University, these two fields of study are integrated into one comprehensive program through which students acquire a broad understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that form the basis of life.
Brunel University
This course provides you with an understanding of the main subject areas in biosciences, with a focus on forensic. It will help you develop transferable and professional skills appropriate to a wide range of careers in health care, industry and academia.
The University of Manchester
This programme gives you a solid basis in science and technology complemented by units incorporating aspects of business management, industrial technology and entrepreneurial skills in order to develop the knowledge required to exploit technological advances within a competitive environment.
Royal Holloway University of London
Important advances in our ability to treat illness, and thus improve the quality of life for people the world over, increasingly rely on a deep understanding of the biological basis underlying disease. Whether we are concerned with cancer, psychiatric disorders, infections, or a myriad of other afflictions, research into the molecular mechanisms underlying normal and abnormal biology is shedding new light on exciting therapeutic opportunities. It is these fast-moving areas of modern scientific investigation that form the basis of our BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences.
University of Dundee
Sports biomedicine is biological and medical science applied to sport and exercise. The aim of this degree is to develop you both as a sports scientist and as a life scientist in order to give you a better chance of employment in a competitive market compared to other sports-related degrees.
The University of Manchester
This joint honours programme investigates the behaviour of humans and other animals in terms of brain mechanisms and evolutionary principles. The programme incorporates the study of biological systems at all levels as well as human behaviour in personal and social contexts. The third year of this four year programme is the placement year, during which students complete a research project in an institution in the UK or abroad. The University assists students in finding placements and currently has established links with approximately three hundred institutions. Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology student have recently had placements with companies including Unilever and Boehringer Ingelheim RCV GmbH & Co KG in Vienna.
Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC)
This program offers students the possibility to pursue the second semester of L3 (S6) at the University of Montreal.
Glasgow Caledonian University
Dietetics is the application of the science of Nutrition to the prevention and treatment of disease and to the promotion of health.
The University of Manchester
This degree programme is designed for students who are committed to Life Sciences but have not yet decided on the area in which you want to specialise, enabling them to make that decision from a position of greater knowledge at the end of their first year. The combination of modules taken in the first year enables students to transfer to most of the degree programmes within the Faculty of Life Sciences. The third year of this four year programme is the language placement year, during which students complete a project in a research institution in a country that speaks their chosen language. It is possible to study this programme with French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German or Japanese.
