ResM Agriculture and Food

This ResM will provide you with the opportunity to undertake substantial independent research alongside scientists working at the forefront of innovation in terrestrial and aquatic food systems in the School of Biological and Marine Sciences. Areas of expertise include development of technology to monitor and improve animal behaviour and welfare, the use of molecular methods for pest, pathogen and biodiversity assessments, and the application of controlled environments in agriculture.

A Research Masters degree incorporates taught elements and an extended research project, which culminates in the submission of a thesis. This programme is governed by research degree regulations, is supported through the University Doctoral College, and requires full engagement in professional and research skills development.
