London South Bank University (LSBU)

London, England, United Kingdom

BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science (Sandwich)

This is a unique and innovative multifaceted programme designed for students wishing to pursue careers in laboratory-based biomedical research, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, or in Science policy, and regulatory professional bodies, as well as for students wishing to study medicine after graduation. The course is designed to equip you with the skills required for these career pathways.

According to Prospects, more than 50% of biomedical science graduates were employed in the UK within 6 months of graduation, while most of the remaining chose to study further.

The programme is designed to offer students the opportunity to develop technical skills linked directly to relevant placements and real-world experiences. This approach will be further reinforced by an opportunity to spend a sandwich year in an industrial/NHS laboratory or governmental organisation placement, thus improving your future job prospects. Key features of this course are its interdisciplinary nature, and its research-based teaching.

Job Opportunity Potential

Employability
Maximising graduate employment opportunity is a central consideration in the design of the proposed career pathways in Biomedical Science. A graduate employability workshop will be offered during year 1. This workshop will host representatives from diverse professional bodies. The purpose of this workshop is to help you to identify a career pathway as well as improving practical skills in presentation, CV writing and communicating to diverse audiences.

At the end of year 1, you will choose the career pathway you would like to follow, as well as option modules relevant for each career pathway. The three available career pathways are:

  • (i) Applied Medical Sciences: students who choose this pathway may pursue careers in biomedical research or in clinical NHS or private health laboratories. Additionally, students who meet the requirements for graduate entry into Medical Schools, or the requirements of enrolling in a physician associate training program may apply to relevant Schools providing these courses. Optional modules available for students in the applied medical sciences include modules of clinical relevance such as “The Cardiovascular System”, “Diabetes and Endocrine Disorders”, “Neuroscience and Ageing” and the “Microbiome”. Placements and future job opportunities can be sought in NHS laboratories, health-related institutions or in biomedical-focused industries such as those working in small molecules, clinical research and monitoring, next-generation sequencing, diagnostics, blood stem cell & bone marrow transplantation.
  • (ii) Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Industry: students who choose this pathway may pursue careers in the pharmaceutical, or biotechnology industry. Optional modules available for students in this career pathway include “Introduction to Pharmacology and Toxicology”, “Entrepreneurship”, “Drug Design and Development” and “Bioreactors”. Placements can be sought at pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies that deal with technologies for drug discovery and development, Antibody production, Biologics, Cell Therapies, Cancer Drugs, Vaccines, RNAi, Gene Therapy and CAR-T cell therapy.
  • (iii) Regulatory Sector/Science Policy: Optional modules available for students in this career pathway include “Current Perspectives in Bioscience”, “Ethics and Law”, “Legal Skills and Intellectual Property Rights” and “Public Health”. Students pursuing careers in Science policy may seek placements in Scientific societies and charities such as Cancer Research UK., international organisations such as the International Council for Science, government bodies, and NGOs. Science communication is an essential skill required for this career pathway. This skill will be developed throughout several modules such as Skills for Biomedical Scientists, Project and Current Perspectives in Biosciences.
