Nanotechnology and Regenerative Medicine MSc

Nanotechnology and Regenerative Medicine are rapidly expanding fields with the potential to revolutionise modern medicine. This cross-disciplinary programme provides students with a robust scientific understanding in these fields, combined with a "hands-on" practical and translational focus. This programme will equip students with a critical understanding of: how nanotechnology can be harnessed for the improved detection and treatment of disease; the use of stem cells in medicine; tissue engineering strategies for tissue regeneration; improving biomaterials for directing cell behaviour; the regulatory, ethical and commercial hurdles for the translation of these emerging technologies. Part-time (2 years) will usually need to attend for approximately 1.5 days each week (October-February).

Careers

Student career options and progression during and following the completion of the degree are considered to be of the utmost importance. Personal tutors will offer individual advice and seminars are arranged on a variety of career competencies including CV writing, writing research proposals and positive personal presentation.

Employability

Graduates of the programme gain the transferable laboratory, critical and soft skills, such as science communication, necessary to pursue a scientific or clinical research career in the fields of nanomedicine and regenerative medicine.

Optional qualifications

This degree is also available as a PG Certificate with fees set accordingly.
