Course summary
Overview
This MSc programme will allow you to develop your knowledge and understanding of advance Immunological concepts.
Why choose Biomedical Science (Medical Immunology) MSc at Middlesex?
On our master's degree you will learn about how the immune system protects the host from infection by microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria but how it can also, when deregulated, give rise to immune system disorders such as autoimmune disease.
You will learn how immunological reagents may be used as immunotherapeutics to treat cancers and inflammatory disease and how immunoassays are used in the diagnosis of disease.
We also cover the framework and vocabulary in essential and advanced aspects of Immunology.
What you will gain
You will learn analytical and technical skills that will prepare you for a career within the NHS, the private health sector, pharmaceutical industry, education, or to work in training or research.
You will work on your own research project, under supervision, which may lead to inclusion in a scientific publication, resulting in an improved research profile.
Specialist external lecturers will share their knowledge with you from their areas of expertise. This broadens your knowledge resources and network opportunities. For example, during your immunopathology module, you will be taught about how a recipient is matched to a donor kidney that has suddenly become available by the blood and transplant team at St. Georges Hospital Medical School.
You will be taught about the diagnosis of primary immunodeficiencies in children by a clinical scientist based in Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital and finally, you will be taught how to diagnose allergy and hypersensitivity by an expert in the area based at West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS trust.
