Course Overview

The BSc (Hons) Personalised Medicine with optional placement year at Ulster University is a undergraduate programme designed for students passionate about advancing health outcomes. Based in Derry~Londonderry, Northern Ireland, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 4-year full-time structure. Personalised medicine is at the cutting edge of a new era in healthcare. Our ability to understand how genes, lifestyle and environment can influence disease promises to revolutionise healthcare practices. Personalised medicine relies on the use of biomarkers (such as genes or proteins) to stratify (or organise) patients into groups of individuals who are at risk of developing a disease, or who are likely to respond better to one therapy over other alternatives. International tuition fees are £17,490 per year, home/UK fees are £9,535 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 89% student satisfaction rating, and 77% of graduates in employment or further study.
