About Biomedical Science With A Year In Industry Bsc in University of Sheffield

This course allows you to do a year-long, paid work placement as part of your degree. You'll pay reduced fees for the year you're on placement and you'll have the support you need from your tutor and the University. Most students earn salaries during their placements and many are offered a graduate-level job at the end.

Previous students have found placements at organisations that include RB, Eli Lilly and GSK. It's a great opportunity to test out a career path that you're considering, whether that's in the lab or through applying your scientific knowledge and transferable skills in industry.

The course covers everything from the gene to whole-body systems, including cell and molecular biology, genetics, physiology, pharmacology, anatomy, developmental biology, neuroscience and systems biology. We're proud to be one of only a few universities in the UK to offer undergraduate students the opportunity to perform full-body cadaveric dissection, providing you with an excellent foundation for understanding human physiology and developmental biology.

Our degrees all start with core subject and skills modules that provide the foundation for your studies. As you progress through your degree, you can maintain a broad biomedical theme or specialise in a theme such as physiology, cell biology, stem cells or neuroscience. Moving to a different degree course is possible, especially in the first year, and depending on your qualifications.

If you want to study biomedical science but don't meet the entry requirements to go straight into the first year, our Biosciences with a Foundation Year could be for you. After successfully completing the one-year programme, you'll progress onto the first year of your chosen degree.
