Our MRes Cardiovascular Health and Disease course is a research master’s course focusing on cardiovascular research within a multidisciplinary training environment.
Through this course you will develop broad biomedical research skills with an emphasis on application to cardiovascular science.
It is now widely recognised by employers and research councils that unravelling the basis of cardiovascular disease and developing new therapies is a high-priority area for investment, especially since the economic burden of cardiovascular disease is increasing.
However, it is becoming increasingly clearer that a gap has opened up between the skills possessed by new graduates and the skills normally expected on entry to a research degree or an industrial research career. This MRes has been specifically designed to fill this gap for those who wish to pursue a research career in cardiovascular sciences.
We require an honours degree (at least an Upper Second) or international equivalent in: an appropriate biological or medical subject. We will consider candidates with a Lower Second in exceptional circumstances. Intercalating students on the Manchester MBChB must have had satisfactory achievement in Years 1 to 3 or 4. For St Andrews students, this includes your three-year course plus the following one or two years spent in Manchester. We also accept intercalating medical students from other UK universities, including home medical and international medical graduates who can demonstrate relevant experience and commitment to biomedical research. We do not require applicants to have already developed their own research proposals. This course is suitable for those with little or no previous research experience.
