"summary": "Understanding normal and abnormal function brings science to a human context and is critical for the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Our programmes range from the study of fundamental science in our human physiology course through to studying the characteristics and diagnosis of disease in biomedical science. \n\nThe foundation year provides a route onto a life sciences degree if you don't have the qualifications or have not studied advanced level subjects sufficiently related to your course of choice. \n\nAfter successful completion of the foundation year in life sciences, you can progress on to one of the relevant BSc (Hons) degrees.\n\nWhichever route you take, you’ll have the skills and understanding you need to undertake further study or get started in your career.\n\n**FEATURES AND BENEFITS**\n\n\n- Provides a route onto your chosen degree course if you don't currently meet the entry requirements.\n\n\n- Foundation years are designed to make undergraduate degrees more accessible to those who are under-represented in higher education, for example, those with non-traditional qualifications.\n\n\n- Course content is tailored so that it is appropriate to your chosen degree.\n\n\n- Helps you to develop the study skills and academic knowledge you will need to start Year 1 of your degree with confidence.\n\n\n- You will be eligible to apply for student finance in the same way as other undergraduates.\n\n\n- We’ve invested over £115 million to transform the way we teach and the way our students learn. The new Dalton building is equipped with dynamic learning spaces, world-class teaching and research facilities and collaborative study zones. This means you’ll graduate with the skills and experiences employers look for. \n",
