Well I’m a student at the moment. Some PhD students do get paid for completing a PhD (I do)- this is because a PhD is considered a full time job. However we don’t get paid very much at all. My maintenance grant is approximately £14,000 a year. This is a common amount which most students like me get. As this is not a lot, I also do some lecturing on the side which is well paid fortunately (I’m not going to say how much!).

People in my role can usually earn between 25-30k a year depending on the company, the sector (pharmaceuticals is quite well paid), the location (wages are much higher in the south and east around London). And their experience/education. I prefer not to disclose my exact wage.

NHS scientists get paid differently based on their experience, and are paid under Agenda for Change contracts, which means that all NHS employees across the UK are paid the same for doing the same job. Biomedical scientists start at £20000 a year as a trainee and can earn up to £30000 with experience. Advanced Biomedical Scientists have more management responsibility and can earn between £30000 and £40000 a year.
