As a Biomedical Sciences student, you will either already be enrolled on a programme which includes a year abroad or if not, you have the option to transfer from your three-year degree scheme onto a four-year course which includes a year abroad during YEAR ONE ONLY. Students cannot transfer in Year 2 but may have the option to join a waiting list.
The following partner universities are suitable for Biomedical Sciences students. However, not all options will be available annually so please be prepared to be flexible! Enrolment on a programme with a year abroad does not guarantee you a year abroad placement. Spaces are limited and subject to a competitive selection process. In the event you do not secure a year abroad placement, you will be transferred to the standard variant of your degree scheme without a year abroad.
