This MSc/ PGDip Molecular Biology prepares you to work both in research and diagnostic laboratories across the pharmaceutical, biotech or biomedical sectors. Our online MSc / PGDip Molecular Biology will help deepen your understanding of a cells biological structure and will teach you the latest techniques applied in the sector. This cutting-edge training will give you the knowledge to develop professionally in an industry experiencing rapid growth and high demand for qualified and experienced professionals.
You will have access to many hours of audio visual materials, which are essential teaching materials. Thus, you can study wherever and whenever you want.
Approximately twice a week you will carry out practical activities that will be reviewed and evaluated by your specialized teachers.
Class summaries, articles to stay up-to-date... You will have everything you need to keep on learning.
You will learn from well-known experts in the medical sector thanks to our master classes, which you can watch as many times as you want.
At the end of the course you will conduct a research project on a topic of your interest. One of our teachers will supervise your project.
Your teachers will open the doors to
training in MSc / PGDip
