Course summary
Immunology is the study of the body’s defence (immune) system and how it protects from, and contributes to, disease.
This is one of the few programmes in the UK which offer an Honours degree focusing solely on immunology for two years (years 3 and 4).
Life Sciences at Glasgow
With hands-on experience and flexible degrees, studying at the School of Life Sciences challenges you to apply the theory of the classroom in practical situations, in the lab or the field. We offer an extremely wide range of courses in human and animal biology, biomolecular sciences, infection and immunity.
Our aim is to offer internationally competitive degrees that meet the needs of today’s science graduates. To achieve this aim, we utilise the research and teaching strengths of the College of Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences to provide our graduates with the skills necessary for success in any chosen career.
We have a large and diverse student body, which includes Scottish, UK, EU and international students. We regularly welcome visiting and exchange students, and we believe in the many advantages our students gain from adding an international dimension to their studies.
CAREER PROSPECTS
Many graduates continue to postgraduate Masters or PhD studies, or enter medicine, dentistry or veterinary medicine. Research-based career destinations include universities and research institutes and industry, and clinical research and diagnostic work in hospital laboratories. Many go on to a career in other fields of science, such as infection biology, and cancer or cardiovascular research, or areas such as teaching, scientific journalism, business and the Civil Service.
