Modern Languages and Biomedical Science

About the course

This combined bachelor’s degree lets you build advanced proficiency in one language and functional competence in a second, alongside strong foundations in biomedical science. You’ll study with expert academics and researchers, using modern teaching spaces and laboratories, with opportunities for international exchange. In four years you graduate with two qualifications, with flexibility to continue in one degree if plans change in this Bachelor programme spanning languages and biomedical science.

Career outcome

Graduates can pursue roles that combine language expertise with biomedical and health-focused knowledge, supporting work in research, laboratories, public health, health services, government, NGOs and internationally oriented organisations. The double degree can also strengthen pathways into further study or professional programs, and careers needing cross-cultural communication in science and health settings. Outcomes align with a Bachelor-level preparation in modern languages and biomedical science.
