Biomedical Science Universiti Malaya

Overview

In the first year, students are introduced to the basics of medical sciences, whereby students will acquire their fundamental understanding of human body structure, functions and mechanisms. 

By their second year, students will come to appreciate the impact of disease and pathology as they proceed to gain expertise in specific biomedical disciplines such as Histopathology, Haematology, Chemical Pathology and Infectious Diseases. Students will uncover the principles underlying various analytical methods and investigatory procedures used in laboratory medicine and gain confidence and skill from practical sessions that consolidate theoretical instruction. 

An Industrial Training attachment in the third year will bolster the student’s independence and provide exposure to real-world biomedical services. When students return to the faculty for their final year, they are ready to embark on what will be the most important milestone of their undergraduate years: carrying out research projects of their own design in their chosen area of interest.
