BIOMEDICINE WITH ADVANCED PATHWAYS (MSCI)

Deep insight into the functioning of living systems depends upon a thorough knowledge of the chemical and physical principles that govern the structure and behaviour of biomolecules. Structural molecular biology encompasses those areas of science devoted to a detailed understanding of the fundamental molecular and biochemical components of living systems and of how these components interact in the functional (healthy) and dysfunctional (diseased) organism. Such understanding finds application in numerous areas including basic biotechnology, diagnostics and forensics, and drug discovery.

This integrated Master’s programme, comprising the three-year BSc Biomedicine and one year of Master's-level study, will provide you with the knowledge, skills and hands-on research experience that will help you to launch your career in these or other exciting areas of research science.
