The Biomedical Sciences (Medical Microbiology) MSc is designed to give students the opportunity to study and analyse the theoretical and practical basis of medical microbiology and many of the specialist areas within it. They will gain greater insight into the importance and role of medical microbiology, with an emphasis on cutting edge areas such as molecular diagnostics and genomics, emerging pathogens and antibiotic resistance.
Students will study a range of core and option modules that will allow them to tailor studies to their own requirements. Students will expand their knowledge of the basic science and analytical techniques relating to medical microbiology and gain an up-to-date understanding of the application of medical microbiology in bioscience/pharmaceutical research, as well as in diagnostic and therapeutic medicine. There will be an emphasis in the course on development of critical analysis skills in assessment of scientific literature and laboratory data. In addition students will have the opportunity to design and execute their own research project. The course team is supported by visiting lecturers who are practising scientists in the field, which helps to ensure that taught material is current and relevant.
