Hi Lee,
As a Biomedical Scientist, you will complete your basic training as a soldier first and then start studying for a BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science at the Royal College of Defence Medicine in Birmingham and Aston University. From there you will then join a regiment and be employed across the Army Medical Services role. You will have the opportunity to progress your studies to Masters level as you progress through your career. -

Thank you so much for the reply josh,
I already have my BSC degree in BMS, so would that mean... I would first complete my basic soldier training, followed by completing a portfolio (HCPC) and then join a regiment?
regards,

I see Lee, my apologies!
As long as it is a degree recognised in the UK you would only need to complete basic training and one or two other extras to cover the differences between a military and civilian role. You would then join a regiment after that.
Whilst we do train our own we absolutely welcome those already qualified!
