Life Science route The Life Science route will give you a thorough grounding in pathology and the scientific investigation of human health and disease. Pathology is the analysis of patients’ specimens to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. You will graduate with skills and technical knowledge in a range of biomedical techniques and you will be capable of expert analysis and interpretation. Four courses in this area are offered: Blood Sciences, Infection Sciences, Cellular Sciences and Genetic Sciences.
