MSc Biotechnology
Our MSc course in Biotechnology is about discovery, innovation and translation of knowledge to application of novel products. The emphasis of the course is about the impact of modern biotechnological tools and approaches to address today's global challenges, from food to therapeutics. You'll learn about fundamental cellular mechanisms, genetic manipulations of biological systems and production processes. You will be trained in high throughput technologies in taught modules such as advanced molecular methods and be equipped with strong research skills throughout the curriculum.
Industrial and commercial aspects of biotechnology bring you closer to the current trends and careers in the field.
You can specialise in plant, microbial or animal biotechnology:
Research project
You can carry out the project on campus or as part of an industrial placement. Placements in industry will be subject to meeting academic requirements.
The majority of the course is delivered at Sutton Bonington Campus, with one taught module being delivered at Jubilee Campus. Research projects are hosted by supervisors based at Sutton Bonington and University Park Campus.
