Imperial Medical Biosciences with Management: a business final year
Imperial's Medical Biosciences with Management BSc shares its first two years and entry rules with the Medical Biosciences degree. What changes is the last year: it is spent entirely with the Imperial Business School, learning to address management issues in modern healthcare systems. The decision is whether you want that business year in place of the research project.

The degree
Biomedical science, then healthcare management
Imperial says the course advances understanding of biomedical science and its application in research, policy and industry, with a research-intensive, laboratory-focused curriculum in the first years. It complements scientific and clinical skills with business acumen in a final year spent entirely with the Imperial Business School, where core modules address management issues faced by modern healthcare systems.
Management year or research project?
Choosing between the two Medical Biosciences degrees
The two degrees share their first years and entry rules, so the choice is about what the last year is for.
Choose the management version if
you want biomedical science plus business training aimed at healthcare systems, and accept an extra year.
Choose Medical Biosciences if
you want a three-year research degree with a final-year research project. Avandy's Imperial Medical Biosciences guide covers it.
Choose Medicine if
you want to qualify as a doctor. Avandy's Imperial Medicine guide covers that route.
Entry rules
Biology plus a second science, and no test
A-level applicants need AAA including A in Biology or Human Biology and A in Chemistry, Mathematics, Further Mathematics or Physics; IB applicants need 38 points with 6 in Biology and a second science at Higher Level. There is no test, and generally no interview. This page states no scores.
A decision framework
Three questions before you commit
This is Avandy's own framework, not Imperial's.
Is management a goal or a hedge?
The final year is spent entirely in the Business School.
Are you content with a fourth year?
The research version is three years.
Is Biology your strongest subject?
It is required at A level and Higher Level.
Planning for 2028 entry
Planning for 2028 entry: what carries over and what is awaiting publication
Applying for 2028 entry means applying in 2027, under rules Imperial has not yet published for that cycle. Each item below carries one of two labels. Last verified for 2027 entry means Imperial published it for the previous cycle and it may change. Awaiting publication for 2028 entry means Imperial has not yet published it.
Grades, subject requirements, the test position and the interview arrangements: last verified for 2027 entry
These are the best guide to what to prepare. Imperial has not confirmed them for 2028 entry.
The UCAS deadline, test windows and interview dates: awaiting publication for 2028 entry
