Prerequisites
The course is designed for Biomedical Sciences graduates and therefore we require students to have either a bachelor’s degree in biomedical sciences or a diploma to the same standard. We can also accept students from a science related degree but ask they are aware of prerequisites required to become a HCPC registered Biomedical Scientist.
Certification
Upon successful completion of the course, you will receive a Biomed Lab Training certification, validating your expertise in Histology.
