Diagnostic Radiography, FullTime
Diagnostic radiography is a job that is always needed and there are so many areas you can specialise in to. Bored of X-ray? Learn MRI instead. I didn’t realise how many opportunities there are as a radiographer until after starting but in terms of value, the job will always be critical and is always hiring worldwide so you’ll always be able to find work. Most of the lecturers on the course are brilliant and very welcoming of questions, they are easy to talk to if you are having any problems. The course is challenging but very interesting so i 100% recommend it to anyone considering a career in radiography. (I especially love learning about different pathologies and what they look like on images!)

Biomedical Science, BSc Hons FullTime
I was initially attracted to the BSc (hons) Biomedical Science course due to the wide variety of subject areas and scientific disciplines that are covered within the course and the great breadth of knowledge I would be able to gain over a range of disciplines with the hope of progressing more specifically into one of these research disciplines upon further education. Once again the incorporation of practical learning and opportunities for placements embedded within the applied route, made me appreciate the importance RGU emphasised in practical learning and development of working skills throughout our degrees, and not solely on the theoretical aspects. the external support provided regarding information on potential career paths and opportunities for professional development has been excellent in allowing me to expand upon my skills out with my degree and give me a detailed understanding of the future opportunities my course brings. read more
