Biomedical Sciences 2018 Sheffield Hallam Uni/Uni of Sheffield, Which is better?

Are you wanting to be a Biomedical Scientist after your degree?

Hi TraineeBMS.

I am not 100% sure yet. If I get a 2.1 or above I will 100% apply for Graduate Medicine and the STP programme. If I get in despite the odds then great. If I don't then I'm not sure what to do afterwards.
With the IBMS accredited degree at Sheffield Hallam, I know that I have a chance of becoming a biomedical scientist in the NHS bands 5 (if i get the appropriate placement). On the other hand, with the Biomed Degree at Uni Of Sheffield I have no clue what careers/job I can get with it. The only one I can think of is further education and researching somewhere.

Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks

I'm on the same boat as you. I've applied to Hallam for Biomedical Science as my firm choice, then I want to do the 4 year grad Med course at Nottingham.
On the open day the head of Biomed told me that they have a couple of people who go on to do Medicine at graduate level every year and can provide promising placemenets for people in the 3rd year with the experience they need for Medicine e.g haemotology paid experience, this is helpful because many graduate courses require a certain amount of expereince with patients. Overall I'd say Hallam is great as if you don't get in to Medicine and don't want to improve and apply again then you can become a physician associate with a 2 year degree which is like a Doctor or a Biomedical Scientist.

Got conditional offer at hallam. On 2 minds radiography or biomedical 🤦*♂️🤣 anyone else got offer for Hallam

@RegisteredBMS I applied for radiography, but I put biomedical as a last random choice and somehow got in, because it’s in my city. And what do you mean by drawn out route?
