What you will study

The interdisciplinary nature of the BSc Biomedical Sciences course at Exeter means that you will explore a range of areas such as biochemistry, genetics, cell biology, physiology, immunology and infection, neuroscience and diabetes. In the first year, you’ll gain a wide-ranging insight into how the human body normally works. We study this through small-group sessions, lectures and hands-on laboratory practicals. As the course progresses, we build upon this foundation to see how things can go wrong in the body due to disease and trauma and how normal function might be restored.
