B.Sc. Biomedical Sciences

COURSE OVERVIEW

The B. Sc Biomedical Science program at The Apollo University is very dynamic that offers exciting career opportunities in research laboratories, Biotechnology industries, Education and Management while serving the human society. Biomedical Science is the applied domain of life and natural sciences, used for diagnosis, prevention and treatment of human diseases. The various streams of biomedical science are Human Biology, Pathology, Biochemistry, Molecular & Cell Biology, Genetics, Pharmacology, Immunology, Clinical Chemistry, Microbiology, Epidemiology, and Biomedical Engineering. At The Apollo University, we have skilled and experienced faculty to impart training in various tools and techniques of Biomedical Science. Moreover, we facilitate our students with the latest technologies during the lab sessions to ensure a hands-on experience, this in turn helps them become industry- ready. The curriculum is designed with an aim to provide project-based learning, wherein the students work on projects as part of the study. On 2nd February 2023, Visitor Education Program Agreement (VEPA) has been signed between The Apollo University and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Inc., 75 Francis Street, Boston, MA 02115, USA. In addition, to improve the students research skills, the university has signed memorandum of understanding (MoU) with University of Hyderabad, India and Aurobindo Pharma, India, which provide training to the students of B.Sc. Biomedical Science.
