Birmingham: A Top Choice for Graduate Employability

We’re proud to be the UK university most targeted by the country’s leading graduate employers (The Graduate Market in 2024 High Fliers report).

The course is especially designed for healthcare professionals working within the NHS to improve their capabilities and support career progression. It could be similarly beneficial for those working or aspiring to work in other healthcare systems.

Students who are not healthcare professionals will acquire knowledge, understanding and skills to help them gain employment or PhD positions especially in the expanding fields of genomics, bioinformatics or other medically-related research and development in either academia or the pharmaceutical industry.
