    Course Summary

    The University of Hull’s Biomedical Science BSc degree program teaches you how to apply the principles of the life sciences to medicine and human health issues. This program is heavily laboratory based. It is fully accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science and was named one of the UK’s top ten medical technology courses by the Complete University Guide in 2018.

    Though this degree can be taken in just 3 years, many students opt to add a foundation year. The foundation year will serve several purposes. First it will give you an introduction to studying and taking tests at a university level, and get you used to life at the University of Hull. It will also introduce basic scientific principles and background knowledge. It is perfect for those with experience but no degree awards, those without high UCAS Tariff scores or for those who are returning to education after a long absence.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
