BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science with Foundation (4 Years Main Site)

If your first language is not English, you will need an IELTS of 6.0 overall, with 5.5 in each component. Please note however that the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), along with other requirements for registration, requires that students must be capable of attaining the equivalent to IELTS 7.0 with no component part scoring below 6.5, at the point of graduation. During the course of your degree you will have the opportunity to practice and improve your command of the English language as you complete various assessment tasks including oral and written assessments. If you feel however that you would benefit from extra English support the university has a number of options to help including a pre-sessional English course and academic English modules which may be taken as options during your Level 4 and Level 5 studies.
