BSc Integrative Biomedical Sciences (based in China)
About this course
BSc (Hons) in Integrative Biomedical Sciences (based in China), an undergraduate degree in Integrative Biomedical Sciences (based in China). Core topics include Research Methods, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. This four-year programme is based in Haining, China, and is awarded jointly by Zhejiang University and the University of Edinburgh. The first year covers foundational subjects through Integrative Biomedical Sciences 1, Introduction to Cellular and Molecular Biology 1, Advanced Mathematics, Chemistry, Introduction to Biomedical Informatics 1, and Biomedical Horizons. The second year examines core areas via Applied Biomedical Sciences 2, Integrated Functions of Body Systems 2, Building an Organism 2, Biomedical Genetics 2, and Microorganisms and Immunity 2. The third year builds advanced knowledge through Integrative Biomedical Sciences 3, Human Disease: From Research to Clinic 3A, Molecular Biology and Epigenetics 3, Principles of Neuroscience 3, Endocrine and Reproductive Biology 3, and Infection 3. The final year involves independent research through the Integrative Biomedical Sciences Research Project, alongside advanced study in modules such as Integrative Biomedical Sciences 4, Integrative Biomedical Sciences Project Preview, Future Perspectives 4, Biomedical Image Analysis, Brain, Cognition and Artificial Intelligence, Inflammation and Inflammatory Diseases, Cancer Biology, and Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine.
