This BSc is designed to introduce students to a variety of scientific disciplines across the biosciences. The interdisciplinary nature of the programme means that the areas covered include anatomy, cell biology, developmental biology, genetics, immunology and infection, neuroscience, pharmacology, physiology and psychology.
In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).
In the first year all modules are mandatory and are designed to give you a firm foundation on the basis of which you can make an informed choice for later years. The modules cover topics in, e.g., anatomy, cellular and molecular biology, chemistry, genetics, pharmacology and physiology.
If you find that your interest becomes focused on one specific subject area after your first year, then you can apply to transfer to a specialist degree programme.
If you wish to remain with the Biomedical Sciences programme, the second year offers five streams of study.
In your third year, you will undertake a research project under the supervision of a staff member in conjunction with a research group in one of the faculty's departments or within UCL's biomedical institutes. You will also select from an extensive range of options in your chosen stream of study.
You can apply to transfer to any of the following specialist degree programmes after year one: Cell Biology Genetics Human Genetics Immunology and Infection Molecular Biology Neuroscience Pharmacology Physiology Physiology and Pharmacology
Upon successful completion of 360 credits, you will be awarded a BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Sciences.
