Introduction to Physiology and Biochemistry (900H1)

15 credits, Level 7 (Masters)

Autumn teaching

This module takes a functional approach providing you with an understanding of the core physiological, biomechanical and biochemical concepts that underpin the human body. The content will move through the human organ systems and tissue types with particular emphasis placed on learning fundamental principles and their relevance in a biomedical engineering environment.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2025/26. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
