The MSc/PG Diploma programme in Biotechnology will provide students with a sufficiently broad range of both fundamental principles and innovative practices in the subject to be able to apply their knowledge proficiently in the relevant industries. The biotechnology industry is a diverse sector ranging from food and beverage production to the production of novel pharmaceuticals. However, all of these industries have much in common; they require highly trained graduates. Biotechnology is increasing in importance worldwide and it is seen as an industry that can deliver many benefits to society, such as safer and more effective pharmaceuticals; sustainable food sources; raw materials, and bio-fuels.
For MSc level entry, candidates must hold a First or Second Class Honours Degree or equivalent qualification from a British or approved overseas university (preferably in a Biological Science, Chemistry or Chemical Engineering). For Diploma level entry, candidates must hold a degree, preferably at Honours level in an appropriate subject as defined above.
