APPLIED BIOMEDICAL HEALTH BSC (HONS)

Our Applied Biomedical Health degree is a programme of study that will enable you to gain knowledge and understanding of health from a biomedical perspective. Undertaking this degree at Liverpool Hope will enable you to develop a range of applied laboratory, specialist practical and transferable skills that will prepare you for future employment, postgraduate research and lifelong learning in the sciences.

Based within the School of Health Sciences, you will have full access to the multi-million pound Health Sciences Building and its dedicated and well-equipped teaching labs and research spaces. You will be taught by widely published, research-active academics, who will bring you an enhanced learning experience and facilitate your scholarly development. Small-size, student-centered teaching sessions are a feature at Liverpool Hope and you will benefit from this through greater opportunities for practical work and the application of knowledge to real-world scenarios.

COURSE STRUCTURE
Teaching on this degree is structured into lectures, where all students are taught together, seminars of smaller groups of around 15-20 students, and tutorials which typically have no more than 10 students. You will also have the opportunity to have a one-to-one meeting with your tutor each week.

On top of teaching hours, first year students have a fieldwork placement for three days at our Plas Caerdeon outdoor education facility in North Wales.

In your first year of study, there are approximately 12 teaching hours each week, which reduces to approximately 10 teaching hours in your second and third years. On top of usual teaching hours, you are also expected to spend approximately 30 hours studying independently each week, as well as studying in groups to prepare for any group assessments that you may have.
