• World class experience - Students are exposed to research at the cutting edge of the discipline studied
• Teaching and project supervision - Delivered by world leaders in biomedical research
• Opportunities to publish - Many students have obtained publications as a result of their BSc project and some have gone on to present their research at conferences

Selection process

Selection is based on three supporting documents of equal weighting:

• Academic transcript covering your marks (from university) up to and including the 2023-24 academic year. There is no official cut-off for academic performance but students who are accepted onto our courses are generally on track to achieve a 2.1 or higher.
• One academic reference from a member of staff at your university. You will be asked to provide the contact details of your referee in your application form. Imperial will then email your referee to request a reference. It is your responsibility to make sure your referee submits your reference by the application deadline.
• A personal statement explaining why you have chosen to apply for a particular BSc, why you think you should be selected for it, how the BSc relates to your interests in medical science and future career goals.
