BSc in Biomedical and Health Sciences 理學士(生物醫學及健康科學)

BMH

Short Description

Students will study the scientific principles of different aspects of the biomedical and health sciences. This program provides exposure to advanced diagnostic and disease modeling technologies including the use of omics technologies, computational analytical pipelines and the generation of experimental models for accelerated drug or treatment discoveries in a pre-clinical setting. Our program offers unique educational experiences that emphasize practical training in genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, computational analysis, and disease model generation. The early curriculum is broad-based, covering both the theoretical and practical aspects of biomedical science. The integration of foundational knowledge is achieved through inquiry-based experiential learning courses that emphasize teamwork. The BMH graduates are primed for postgraduate training in clinical medicine, genetic counselling, and biomedical research. With their immersive training in biomedical technologies, graduates will be able to serve in diverse roles in the healthcare system, such as pharmaceutical or medical technology companies, research institutes, government agencies and healthcare consulting. Graduates will also be well-equipped for various roles in the local academic and public health sectors, contributing to research and health initiatives in areas such as molecular diagnostics, patient care, research, and public health.

Remarks:

Students can apply for the BMH program through direct choice in JUPAS, or apply for transfer from the Science (Group B) program after their first year of study. Students interested in BMH program are encouraged to include both BMH program (JS5118) and Science (Group B) program (JS5103) in their JUPAS program choices.

The BMH program is subject for approval.
