YEAR 12 TASTER DAY FRIDAY 14 th JULY 10:00 – 16:00 ARE YOU STUDYING SCIENCE, MATHS OR PSYCHOLOGY A-LEVELS AND CONSIDERING YOUR CAREER OPTIONS? THEN COMING TO OUR TASTER DAY WILL REALLY BRING OUR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONS TO LIFE. Have you ever considered the physics and maths involved in producing an x-ray? How about the chemistry involved in blood clotting and cardiac arrest? Or, the combination of physics and psychology involved in hearing and sound recognition? Or even, what job you are going to apply your ‘A grade’ sports science A level to. Whilst all three of our practical courses involve plenty of biology, there is much more to these healthcare professions than understanding human anatomy and physiology. On our Taster Day you will get the opportunity to experience mini-lectures explaining all about audiology, cardiac physiology and radiography. You will participate in practical activities using our bespoke software, dummy patients and clinical equipment. You will even handle real bones from the 19 th century bone collection and get to view ultrasound images of your own heart. Who is the event for? Any Year 12 student studying at least one science subject (biology, chemistry, maths, physics, psychology, sports science) and is interested in practical healthcare careers.
