Study biomedical science with one of our biochemistry, microbiology, medical science or physician associate undergraduate degrees.

By studying healthcare, you can help:

  • enhance wellbeing
  • understand and prevent disease
  • improve diagnoses
  • develop new therapies and treatments
  • advance clinical practice.

You’ll conduct your research and laboratory studies in our new, £60m Health and Life Sciences building, which opens in 2020. As the new home of the School of Biological Sciences, it will include:

  • state-of-the-art research and teaching labs
  • seminar rooms
  • study and social space
  • the Cole Museum of Zoology, featuring more than 3,500 natural history specimens.

Learn from experts in the field

Our programmes have been developed in partnership with local NHS healthcare trusts and hospitals to ensure you will have the skills and knowledge needed for a career in healthcare. You will be taught by experienced NHS staff and academics whose research has improved outcomes and understanding in the sector.

Excellent links with industry

We have a well-established network of clinical partners hosted on campus and regionally, including the Royal Berkshire Hospital and Berkshire Healthcare Foundation Trust, and together we have established the Thames Valley Clinical Trials Unit to help deliver impactful clinical outcomes from our scientific discoveries.
