* MSc (Med Sci): 12 months full-time; (24 months part-time by special arrangement)

Teaching and learning methods

A variety of methods are used, including problem-based learning, case-based learning, lectures, tutorials and laboratories. These are supplemented by a wide range of course-specific electronic resources for additional learning and self-assessment. As a result, you will develop a wide range of skills relevant to careers in research, diagnostics or clinical genetics; these skills include team-working, data interpretation and experimental design. You will utilise the primary scientific literature as an information resource, although textbooks such as our own Essential Medical Genetics will also be useful.

Courses

* Molecular genetics
* Cytogenetics
* Biochemical genetics
* Clinical skills
* Case investigations
* Integrated case studies
* Research skills.

You will also carry out an independent piece of research on a relevant topic, either a laboratory-based or library/clinical data-based investigation and write this up as a dissertation.
