Develop the knowledge and skills you need to contribute to the future of scientific testing and research into disease by studying Biomedical Science at Leeds Trinity University.

Experts trained in biomedical science have recently discovered, designed and developed novel lateral flow tests and vaccines to support the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Our Biomedical Science degree will enable you to develop the knowledge and skills needed to join these experts and contribute to the future of scientific testing and study of disease.

You’ll learn from research-active academics who will share their knowledge and professional experience with you. You’ll study the molecular, cellular and organ-level processes that take place in the human body as well as the pathological changes that occur in disease and compounds that can be measured to aid diagnosis.

Employability is central to the development and delivery of this course and the high levels of practical content will help prepare you for a biomedical science career in a range of disciplines.
