Kaigheyisi:

I applied directly through the school website

Ok
Thanks
Can I pm you?

Good evening fellow landers.
I studied Biological Sciences which is in the shortage occupation list.

Does anyone have an idea of the approved body that registers Biological Sciences? Or guidelines on how to get a tier 2 visa with the course.

Thank you

Justwise, abeg what was wrong with what I posted that made you remove my post. I only asked that those going to Cardiff Met should indicate so that we share information cos I got a conditional offer. I asked to PM me. Was it wrong abeg? so that I will not post such again ejor sir.
We already have a Teeside uni group where we share valuable information instead of spamming the thread with same questions asked before

I studied medical laboratory science in uniben

wow, congrats bro, Bmls Uniben 2018. I may even know you personally if your set is from 2015 upwards.

That is exactly the sort selfish act I try to discourage here. You jumped into an open discussion group and wants to create a private one for a few.

Did you not benefit from other people’s contributions here?

Ahhh boss, no call me selfish na, I meant no harm oo. Just that there will always be applications and questions as per different schools after now so no information is lost.
What we talk about is nothing new sir, just what has been mentioned here over and over again.
Just like when two people are going to the same bustop, they pair together to make movement easy. No vex oga sir.

I want to apply for tier 2 visa

‘Biological Sciences’ in the shortage list is broad-based.
As I posted here before (based on advise I saw someone post).

1. Go to UK job vacancy sites (such as indeed.com or reed.co.uk or CV library or NHS jobs, or Totaljobs etc...

2. Search for your dream job (in Biological Science).

3. Peruse the requirements.

4. Make sure you cross the T’s and dot the I’s.

5. Apply for the job.

Kaigheyisi:

sure

Thanks I have

Institute of Biomedical Scientists (IBMS) and registration is done through Health Care Professions Council (HCPC)

Do you have previous job experience in Nigeria? If no ur chances are very slim. However, if you come to the UK (maybe as a student) you might be able to get unpaid experience which will then increase ur chance.

This is my area of specialisation and I will be willing to answer any more questions

University of Ulster is one of the cheapest universities offering biological science courses and they are accredited by IBMS both their undergraduate and post graduate.

You should get ur documents ready for HCPC accreditation via the international route or better still send your degree to IBMS for assessment before going to HCPC

Try to get lab experience in the UK even if it’s unpaid by volunteering, this will increase ur chances a lot. Infact there’s high chance that if u volunteer in an NHS lab they might offer you a job as u have already been trained by them.

Kaigheyisi:
Good morning all. I just want to say thanks to all the Colossus in the house for keeping us updated. Following the guidelines I got here I have gotten 3 offers so far from university of Chester (Biomedical science), Anglia Ruskin university (applied Bioscience) and university of Kent ( forensic science). But I am deeply in love with Chester because they have given me £3,000 award out of £12,450 and they also allow part payment. Please if there's anyone who has studied there or currently studying with useful info about Chester should pls help. Thanks

LaaJiblik:


If I were you:
1. I would update ALL my stuff (registration and dues and licensure with MLSCN and AMLSN).

2. I would immediately set in motion the process for registration with the UK HCPC.

3. I would study real hard during my Masters.

4. Biomedical Scientist jobs would be easy to land after studies.

Only if you are HCPC registered and have the required laboratory experience

What about data analysis
Can one still get uk work permit on that
Because I really can’t find it on the shortage list

Any work experience in that field?

I have a one year experience as a Graduate intern in the laboratory department of a hospital.

But my most recent experience isn't related to Biological Science sector.

Can the 1 year experience suffice?

Vik15:
@justwise, Lagosismyhome, other gurus in the house

I have bsc in geophysics 2.1 and want to further in geophysics or geoscience in uk but the school fees are just too high to pay in one year 20- 30k£.
so I came across university of South Wales in offering 'msc advance applied field geoscience' at glyntaff campus for 14k£. (resealable)

Honestly my target is tier 2 visa after the psw so I want to hv a degree of profession on the shortage list.
1.my question now is this university a good university as regards the product of their graduate value and certificate value?
2.what's the position of accommodation and students jobs in glyntaff?
3. is Wales a good place to study cos I hv not seen anyone going there.
3.what other university to achieve my aim can be subjected.

Thanks in advance

Have you checked out University of Aberden and University of Leeds?

I’m afraid that might not be enough to get you registered with HCPC but like I said earlier make sure u apply and take voluntary laboratory training offers when you get to the UK. Even if it’s 2 or 3 days weekly

Hello Good day,
I have bsc in Environmental Biology, can I switch to msc in biomedical science and also get accredited?

I got an offer for Environmental management in Sheffield Hallam and waiting on BCU (public health), but based in shortage occupations

Thanks

With data analytics, you can apply for a role in IT business analytics,business analytics,data science. My advice is sharpen your skills in data libraries,learn as much and look out for location to get internship if need be.i am fall 2020 data science (loc=london). If you have people working in good companies there too,you can start networking for referals. The most important thing equip yourself with enough libraries.shalom

Please can a medical laboratory scientist with over 6years of experience in Nigeria register from here or is it a must to have Msc in biomedical science before registration.
