Course summary

The fields of anatomy and developmental biology are closely linked. Knowledge of anatomy is important in many areas of biology and medicine, including developmental biology. Similarly, developmental biology tells us much about how normal anatomy is formed and maintained. Understanding the anatomy and development of tissues and organs is essential to the emerging area of tissue repair.

Entry requirements

Standard Qualification Requirements

Direct entry to second year is available; see our website for entry requirements. Please apply for only one Biomedical Sciences degree. If you apply for multiple degrees within the Biomedical Sciences suite only one application will be taken forward for consideration with the remaining applications being processed as unsuccessful. You will have the opportunity to switch between degrees in later years provided the required courses have been passed. There are a limited number of places for second year entry each year. Achieving the required grades does not guarantee an offer for direct entry into second year. Applicants will not be considered for second year entry where: they are applying with resit qualifications; they have taken their final examinations over more than one academic year; they have a gap in study since completing their eligible high school qualifications. Detailed entry requirements, including typical offer levels, and information about other qualifications we accept, are available on the University of Edinburgh’s website. You’ll also find important information on how to apply. You must submit a fully completed UCAS application that includes details of the qualifications you are taking, including full predicted grades for qualifications not yet completed, your personal statement and your reference.
