Would you like to know whether it is possible to produce bio-polymers (plastics) and biofuels from municipal or agricultural waste If you are thinking of a career in the pharma or biotech industries, the Biochemical Engineering MSc could be the right programme for you. Our MSc programme focuses on the core biochemical engineering principles that enable the translation of advances in the life sciences into real processes or products. Students will develop advanced engineering skills (such as bioprocess design, bioreactor engineering, and downstream processing), state-of-the-art life science techniques (such as molecular biology, vaccine development, and microfluidics) and essential business and regulatory knowledge (such as management, quality control, commercialisation).This programme is suitable for graduate scientists holding qualifications in applied biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, chemistry, microbiology, pharmacy or other related subjects. Graduate engineers who apply normally hold qualifications in chemical and/or biochemical engineering, process engineering or other related engineering disciplines.The MSc offers distinct routes tailored both for graduate scientists and engineers depending on the first degree of the applicants. The student’s route will be assigned to students by the admissions tutor depending on their previous education.
