Program Overview


Our Biomedical Sciences (Haematology) MSc focuses on the physiology and pathology of blood and its use as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool.  The course covers a variety of areas of molecular and cellular bioscience, with an emphasis on new technologies and developments in haematology and related disciplines such as transfusion science. You'll expand your knowledge of the basic science and analytical techniques relating to haematology and gain an up-to-date understanding of the application of haematology in bioscience and pharmaceutical research, as well as in diagnostic and therapeutic medicine.

We emphasise developing your critical analysis skills in the assessment of scientific literature and laboratory data. In addition, you'll have the opportunity to design and execute your own research project. Our course team is supported by visiting lecturers who are practising scientists in the field, which helps ensure that taught material is current and relevant.
