Our MSc Immunology course offers a unique opportunity to experience immunology-related research under the guidance of leading experts in the field, before you start a career in industry or academic research. Rather than attending traditional lectures , you will learn through an interactive approach involving seminars, workshops and small group tutorials preparing you for relevant aspects of a science-based career. As this is a research-focused master's course, you will also undertake your own research project in the laboratory of a leading researcher. You will gain research experience and professional skills - perhaps in a different area to your first degree. This will allow you to make an informed choice about the research area you want to go into. You choose the laboratory placement from a list provided by your programme director. Projects on this list will come from a wide range of immunology-related areas of research, both within and outside of the Lydia Becker Institute of Immunology and Inflammation . Our course will also help you to develop transferable skills in essential areas such as experimental design, statistics, bioethics and science communication. PhD with integrated master's If you're planning to undertake a PhD after your master's, our Integrated PhD programme will enable you to combine your postgraduate taught course with a related PhD project in biology, medicine or health.
