Subject

Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine

Imagine being at the forefront of medical innovation, where you can help the human body heal and rebuild itself. Our Bioengineering (Regenerative Medicine) BSc combines cutting-edge science with real-world problem-solving. Working alongside our experts with access to state of the art laboratories, you will gain the transdisciplinary bioengineering know-how and practical skills to work on research, discovery and production of regenerative medicines.

**Why choose this course?**
- Learn from scientific pioneers with world-leading expertise in the field of bioengineering and regenerative medicine

- Access to state-of-the-art facilities including our Central Science Laboratories and David Attenborough Laboratories

- Benefit from a comprehensive programme of academic and professional development workshops to enhance your employability skills

- Study abroad and learn a language opportunities

- Engage with multiple forms of active learning including flipped-classrooms and audience response systems

Our Bioengineering (Regenerative Medicine) BSc is an innovative programme that aims to develop aspiring bioengineers into a specialised workforce, that will respond to the future demands for regenerative therapeutic strategies.

The discipline integrates biochemical, molecular and cellular knowledge with engineering principles to design new types of advanced therapies to repair, replace and rejuvenate damaged or diseased tissues. In your first year of study you will gain a solid grounding in the core components of life, exploring cell biology, molecular science, and human anatomy.

Building on this knowledge, you'll explore more specialised topics like stem cell biology and tissue engineering. You'll learn how to work with biomaterials that can potentially rebuild damaged body parts and understand the complex world of molecular interactions.

Within your second and third year you can choose optional topics to tailor your experience to your own interests and career goals, for example homing biological theory in cell biology for regenerative medicine, cell signalling, studying current topics in regenerative medicine, cancer biology, precision medicine and nanomedicine.

To apply your learning, you will gain hands-on laboratory experience through sessions delivered in our state-of-the-art David Attenborough Laboratories, Central Science Laboratories and at the Guy Hilton Research Institute (at the Royal Stoke University Hospital Site).

Post-six month graduation stats:

This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.

It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.

While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
