Overview

Interested? To learn more about this study programme, entry requirements and application process, please contact one of our consultants in a country nearest to you.

Programme structure

The programme consists of two modules (PGSC001 and PGSC002), which will help you develop a range of generic skills that are not directly related to your area of research, but will provide you with necessary general communication, employability and research skills. These modules will be taught in small groups and will have considerable self-study elements. You will be expected to complete a portfolio demonstrating the tasks that you have completed.

Career opportunities

Past graduates of the School of Life Sciences have continued their academic careers as research assistants or pursued further study leading to a PhD. Graduates have also developed careers in conservation or qualified to immediately go into industries. There is a demand currently for graduates with specialisations in science or computing to enter the teaching profession. Commercial sectors such as the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and agriculture industries will be possible employers of graduates, especially with the anticipated increases in the use of next-generation sequencing and the corresponding data analysis that will be required.
