ABOUT
Be inspired to help shape the future of clinical medicine. This course covers everything from human physiology and pharmacology, to molecular and cell biology. Biomedical science is the study of the human body in health and disease. You’ll study the basis of diseases such as coronavirus and cancer, and tackle challenges such as hearing loss. You’ll explore therapies that use stem cell technology and discover how we develop drug treatment for inflammatory disease.
You’ll study a range of biomedical science modules, with the freedom to explore optional topics from across the breadth of bioscience, including genetics, microbiology, evolution or biochemistry. This flexibility allows you to study biomedical science in greater depth, broaden your interests or switch to another biosciences degree programme. No matter what modules you choose, you’ll develop the practical skills that make our graduates attractive to employers including project management, problem solving, communication skills and data analysis.
We’ll give you plenty of opportunities to apply your new skills and knowledge. You’ll be in the lab completing in-depth practicals, learning about the human body through cadaveric dissection, and sharing your knowledge through peer assisted study sessions.
As you progress through your degree you’ll be able to specialise in key areas such as stem cells, cancer, neuroscience, physiology, pharmacology, and developmental and cell biology. Whichever your specialism, your personal tutor will support you to tailor your degree to your interests and career goals.
Modules
A selection of modules are available each year – some examples are below. There may be changes before you start your course.
In your first year, you’ll cover the basic concepts and skills that biomedicine is based on including molecular, cell and developmental biology; pathobiology; physiology, pharmacology and neuroscience. In practical lab sessions, you’ll learn the scientific research techniques that you’ll use throughout your degree including isolation and cloning of DNA, preparing and staining tissue samples and zebrafish embryos, and taking physiological measurements to determine human fitness. You’ll have lectures and take part in small group tutorials where you’ll be introduced to the latest research findings from our world-leading academics. You’ll also have the opportunity to share knowledge and benefit from others’ expertise through optional peer-assisted study sessions.
In your second year, you’ll begin exploring more advanced scientific techniques, both in the lab and in lectures, with topics including molecular physiology and cell and developmental biology. Many students choose to take our ‘Introduction to Human Anatomy’ module, where you’ll have the opportunity to learn about the human body by performing cadaveric dissection.
In your third year, you’ll complete a research project alongside your chosen specialist modules. If you choose to be lab-based, you’ll be embedded in one of our research groups, working within a team to conduct and report research findings. If you choose to undertake your project in a non-laboratory setting, you could complete an extended library project, gain experience of teaching in local schools, or even join the “Patients as Educators” scheme to interact with and discuss clinical conditions with patient volunteers.

accommodation
The international undergraduate and postgraduate students at this university can use different types of accommodation options and live in a safe and vibrant environment to focus entirely on their studies and get the best result, also the students can use the cafes and bars gyms, and other living facilities, on the other hand, they can have an accommodation tour and Sheffield city tour to become familiar with their living environment and make the most suitable decision, as we said, this university offers various accommodation options with different fees like £6,782.58 to £10,210.62 for a rental place in the city for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and they can choose to have a private or shared room.
After Graduation
The international students can work up to 20 hours in part-time jobs in the UK, however, they must refer to their visa to see whether they have study and work permits or not, we recommend you to focus only on your education to get the best results and be able to find the most suitable jobs in the UK or the global market right after graduation, on the other hand, if the international applicants need extra financial help to pay for their tuition fee, living, and study expenses, they can find part-time jobs under some conditions, also if the students find related jobs to their educational fields (with the help of the university), they will obtain more real experience and skills aside from the theoretical knowledge that they acquire during their study period.
