This Biomed course allows health sector workers to study the latest developments in biomedical science and healthcare management while boosting their own professional development.
Our Biomedical Science Programmes are online degrees aimed at health sector employees who want to keep up-to-date with latest developments in biomedical science, healthcare management and related subjects. The provision is managed by a consortium of NHS Trusts, Pathology Joint Ventures, UK Health Security Agency and the University of Greenwich. The modules are approved for continuing professional development (CPD) by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS), the leading body for current practitioners in the field.
There are a wide range of modules available to study online with full support from an experienced practitioner. Each one is delivered fully online and has been specifically tailored to meet workplace needs. Together they provide a flexible, practical way to learn, either for CPD or towards a Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert), Diploma (PGDip) or full master's degree (MSc).
An undergraduate (honours) degree at 2:2, or above, in a relevant subject.
Applicants without a degree that have professional clinical qualifications or relevant professional experience in healthcare/the NHS may be considered.
Applicants are also expected to be registered practitioners.
Courses are suitable for healthcare professionals including biomedical, clinical and research scientists; laboratory, hospital and health service managers; nurses, pharmacists and medical technical officers; quality, health and safety and risk and governance managers.
BioMed Online helps employees across the health sector to stay abreast of the latest developments in biomedical science and related subjects. You may already have a qualification in a science such as biology, biochemistry, chemistry or pharmacy at a range of levels from HNC or BSc to PhD.
