बीएससी हेल्थकेयर साइंस (फिजियोलॉजिकल साइंसेज)

Our healthcare science degree will help you build on your knowledge of biology to make a positive impact on health and well-being. With us, you could be investigating sleep cycles to treat disorders or conducting critical diagnostic procedures for cardiac respiratory, and sleep patients.

The Department of Life Sciences has strong links to the NHS, hospitals, and clinicians, which not only shape our curriculum but also ensure the skills you’re learning are fully relevant to the workplace.

In Year 1, you will develop core scientific knowledge. In Year 2, your clinical training is specialized in your chosen discipline, and in your final year, you will cover the remaining specialist material for your discipline – cardiac physiology or respiratory and sleep physiology.

Year 1

In Year 1, you will develop core scientific knowledge relevant to healthcare science. You will also begin to gain specialist knowledge of your chosen discipline and start to develop the appropriate professional skills. Clinical placements will introduce you to the workplace and begin your clinical skills training. In the first year, this takes the form of observational work experience.

Core units

• Scientific Basis of Physiological Sciences
• Cell and Molecular Biology
• Physiological Systems
• Professional Practice, Research Skills, and Physiological Measurements

Year 2

In Year 2, your clinical training is specialized in your chosen discipline. You will extend your scientific knowledge base to include the processes of disease and some applications of physics and instrumentation used in healthcare science techniques. All students will also continue to develop their professional skills, as well as focus on the research skills necessary for their final year project.

Core units

• Professional Practice, Signal Processing and Instrumentation
• Disease Processes and Statistics
• Specialist Studies 1
• Specialist Studies 2

Year 3

Year 3 covers the remaining specialist material for your chosen discipline and continues your clinical training in that specialism. In addition, you will complete your project. Your study includes work-based learning (22 weeks) in your chosen specialist area: Cardiac Physiology or Respiratory and Sleep Physiology.

Core units

• Applying Specialist Studies to Practice 1
• Project
• Applying Specialist Studies to Practice 2
• Professional and Evidence-based Practice
