You will also be attached to one or more of our research groups enabling you to work alongside postdoctoral and other postgraduate researchers with shared interests.

You will develop your lab-based skills using our specialist research facilities, preparing you for employment in industry or further academic study. The research project provides a real intellectual challenge, allows you to demonstrate your creativity and initiative and to understand the relevance of scientific research to industry.
