Human and Medical Science @ Westminster University

I think you would be best to contact someone on Facebook about this - I know Westminster have a bioscience group and someone there would be able to tell you a bit more about the Human and Medical Science pathway.

I do know that it is a new degree - so new that I think the first third year cohort are actually starting this September/October - no one has actually graduated from this pathway yet - so they wouldn't be able to tell you what they did afterwards - but some second and third years might be able to give you general information on what you will be studying etc. Hope this helps.

Link below for general University of Westminster – you’ll have to search for the bioscience society – I’m not a member of Facebook – but if you are you will definitely find someone in this society who is reading Human and Medical Science I'm sure.

I'm not really sure if you were speaking to the right people - if it was admin staff they may not have the correct information. You are best to clarify this with the course leader - the link above shows it to be a Dr. Mark Kerrigan - send him an e-mail and ask these questions to clarify.

It does say in the following link that many of the degrees they have in Human and Health Sciences department were only validated in the last 3 to 5 years - like I said your best bet is to search on Facebook as suggested.

...Many of these degrees underwent initial validation in the last 3-5 years...

Like I said you have nothing to lose by searching on Facebook (if you are a memeber) for the bioscience society University of Westminster and posting a friendly message for more info on Human and Medical Science.

Actually here is the link:

Hope it helps, I am pretty sure that I saw someone mention that this was a very new degree though, apologise but can't rememeber where I saw this - but like I said to clarify and get some of your questions answered - speak to the person who runs the course.

Hi, I'm a third year BSc Psychology with Neuroscience student at the University of Westminster and I know a few 3rd years who are on the BSc Human and Medical Science course. The people I have spoken to thoroughly enjoy the content of the course and speak very highly of the course leader Mark Kerrigan who is an excellent lecturer (I attended his Physiology and Anatomy lectures in my first year). Human and Medical Science students have also told me they appreciate the academic support Mark has given them alongside his encouragement for them to become independent learners and to aim high and apply for graduate entry to medicine. The students on the course are very driven because many of them do want to become doctors. If you have any other questions regarding the university please feel free to ask.
