BMS is entering its fifteenth year of success in providing high quality education in association with the international partners. It is committed to creating an intellectually stimulating learning environment through inspirational teaching and research within an inclusive academic culture that benefits the learner, community, country, and the region.
Located in Colombo Sri Lanka, BMS has an unparalleled reputation for quality across all its services and has received commendations from students, parents and partner institutions. BMS has an unparalleled reputation for quality and all of their programmes are quality assured by Edexcel.
BMS has established a track record for long term partnerships in the area of transfer of students to programmes with advanced standing. BMS has a long standing history of collaboration with UK Higher Education Institutions and has developed its partnership with Northumbria University from its original articulation agreement to the now franchised programme of Bachelor of Science (Honours) Biomedical Science.
The partnership between Northumbria University and BMS has developed over many years with BMS being one of our strategic partners. The relationship between the University of Northumbria Business School and BMS is entering its twelfth year and has produced more than one thousand graduate students. BMS has established a track record in the area of transfer of students to programmes with advanced standing - e.g. BMS Advanced Diploma students can enter level 6 of the following programmes BA (Hons) Business and Management, BSc (Hons) Human Resource Management and Leadership and BA (Hons) Leadership and Management. Within the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences Biomedical Science students, on successful completion of their Diploma at BMS, can articulate into level 6 of the BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science programme at Northumbria University.
It is through the BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science programme that the partnership with the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences at Northumbria University exists. In 2015 approval was given to franchise the final year of the BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science programme to BMS. This is the first of a number of planned developments and has involved extensive development of state of the art laboratories at BMS so that students are assured of a high quality learning experience. This development provides students from Sri Lanka with the opportunity to study in their home country, with a considerable reduction in cost when compared to studying abroad.
Opportunities are still available for students to articulate into level 6 of the BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science at Northumbria University, should they wish to do so.
The Faculty of Health and Life Sciences has one current franchised programme with BMS:
Bachelor of Science (Honours) Biomedical Science (Final Year)
All BMS Programmes are quality assured by Edexcel and in its recent annual audit Edexcel gave commendations for the academic quality at BMS.
The University of Kelaniya (Sri Lanka) audits the programmes at BMS and confirm the standards and good practices relating to the courses delivered by BMS.
BMS has been nominated by the British Council to present their long term experience of working with UK Higher Education Institutions to the South Asian Policy Makers in Higher Education during Policy Dialogue Conferences in Colombo and Dubai.
