About the course

Biomedical Science is the fundamental building block of medical practice. Without a deep understanding of the body, healthcare practitioners cannot truly understand, diagnose and treat illnesses and diseases, such as cancer. At Kent, we prepare you for successful careers within and beyond the world of biomedical science and equip you with the skill-set you need. This programme is designed for students who do not meet the requirements for direct entry to Stage 1 of our degree courses, and is an excellent conversion course for applicants who have shown academic ability in non-science subjects.
