Applied Human Biology is a two-year course covering microbiology, infectious diseases, health issues, biomedical science and the key diagnostic techniques used by the NHS. The course has a large coursework component so is well-suited to independent learners and those who enjoy the hands-on approach to learning. You will learn about many common health issues, their diagnosis and their treatments. You will create NHS-style documents detailing this information using facts you have independently researched. You will also carry out investigations into microorganisms, identifying them and suggesting how they can be treated.
Students should have grades 9-4 in five GCSE programmes, including a grade 44 in GCSE Combined Science and either GCSE English or GCSE Mathematics.
