Biomedical sciences are life sciences subjects related to medicine and the human condition. They include subjects at the forefront of life sciences research where issues and new developments frequently grab the headlines and can often have an immediate impact on our lives.
Biomedical scientists will play increasingly important roles in the 21st century as the results of their research, particularly at the molecular and cellular levels, lead to new and improved ways to diagnose and treat human diseases and contribute to improvements in human health and well-being in general.
At Dundee the biomedical sciences are concerned with:
- The structure and normal function of the human body.
- The effects of disease and ways to prevent and treat disease.
- The study of anatomy in relation to health, disease and human identification.
- The study of physiology from the molecular level to that of the whole organism, in relation to health, sport and exercise.
- Understanding how the brain and nervous system function in health and disease.
- Understanding how drugs work.

Levels 1 and 2
All Life Sciences degree programmes share common core modules at Level 1 that provide a general introduction to the life sciences through an integrated programme of lectures, tutorials, practical work and field excursions.
At Levels 3 and 4 you will study a combination of modules appropriate to your chosen degree subject within the biomedical sciences theme.
Group A
- anatomical sciences
- forensic anthropology
If you are reading for a single Honours degree in either Anatomical Sciences or Forensic Anthropology, you will study within a common curriculum at Level 3, which will include in-depth study of human anatomy.
If you are reading for a degree in Anatomical and Physiological Sciences you will take a combination of human anatomy and physiology modules.
Group B
- neuroscience
- pharmacology
- physiological sciences
- sports biomedicine
If you are reading for a single Honours degree in one of these subjects you will take modules in your main subject combined with modules in other subjects in this group, or combined with Level 3 modules in an appropriate biological sciences subject.
