Are you ready to kick start your career in Biomedical and Analytical Science?
Our MSc course is designed to provide you with an in-depth understanding of biomedicine and the analytical methodologies used in this field.
You’ll explore cutting-edge research that enhances our understanding of the human genome and its expression. You’ll investigate the biology, epidemiology, and evolution of pathogens, learning how they are diagnosed, monitored, and treated. This includes studying emerging viruses and multi-drug-resistant bacteria, as well as major human illnesses like cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, and cancer.
You’ll be trained in the latest technologies, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectroscopy (MS), X-ray crystallography, and immunohistochemistry. These skills are crucial for tackling complex issues, solving problems creatively, and functioning as an independent learner in professional environments.
Entry requirements for this course are normally:
Honours degree (2:2 or above) in an appropriate Biological Sciences discipline, or a similar qualification.
Previous graduates from courses in this subject area have gone on to work in a variety of roles such as Biomedical scientist, Biotechnologist, Clinical research associate, Clinical scientist, Forensic scientist, Microbiologist, Physician associate, Research scientist (life sciences), Research scientist (medical), Scientific laboratory technician, Toxicologist.
