Coventry University and IIHS collaborate to offer Bachelors in Biomedical Sciences degree
Coventry University in the United Kingdom (UK) has collaborated with the International Institute of Health Sciences (IIHS) to offer Bachelors in Biomedical Sciences degree which will propel graduates into the forefront of healthcare advancements. Biomedical Sciences serves as the cornerstone of medical practice, providing the essential knowledge for health professionals to comprehend, diagnose, and treat illnesses effectively. The Biomedical Sciences programmes equip students with the skills to utilise cutting-edge techniques and technologies which are crucial for interpreting medical and research data, translating laboratory findings into clinical practice.
The programme at IIHS and Coventry University is accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS) and the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). This accreditation not only validates the programme’s quality, but also enables graduates to practise as biomedical scientists in the UK.
“This programme caters to those aspiring for graduate entry into medicine or dentistry, roles as Physicians Associates, or pursuing teaching qualifications. Beyond the mere scientific expertise, the programme cultivates skills such as problem-solving, analytical thinking, and effective communication. Its holistic approach ensures that graduates are well-equipped for diverse career routes, from hospitals and diagnostic providers to roles in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and even non-scientific careers like civil service or managerial roles.” IIHS Chief Executive Officer Dr. Kithsiri Edirisinghe stated.
