Human Biology is the integrated study of human anatomy and physiology, including the study of the body in health and disease. It covers a wide range of topics, ranging from genetics, microbiology and immunology to the core disciplines of anatomy, microanatomy and physiology. The degree is designed to allow a greater degree of flexibility in the choice of modules, in comparison to the closely related degree in Biomedical Sciences. Specialist subject areas which can be studied in detail include Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Cardiovascular Pathology and Treatment, Topographical Anatomy, Exercise and Sports Science in Medicine, Embryology and Developmental Biology, Public Health Science and Neuroscience. Within these subject areas we provide a wide and innovative range of learning experiences, such as the use of ultrasound imaging in cardiovascular physiology and exposure to cadaveric prosection.

The Intercalated BSc in Medical Sciences is a degree taken between two years of a medical or dental course. The year is equivalent to the final year of a degree in science or biomedical pathways. The degree awarded is a Bachelor of Science (Honours) and depending on performance, this is graded as a 1st Class Honours or Second Class Honours, Upper Division (2.1) or Second Class Honours, Lower Division (2.2) or 3rd Class Honours. Intercalated Medical and Dental Students: Completing an intercalated degree will boost your CV when applying for postgraduate training. Depending on the discipline, selection panels look for completion of an additional degree, or for publications or posters. An intercalated degree gives you the opportunity to improve your chances of future success.
