This three-year Masters programme will provide you with a detailed understanding of infection disciplines. The courses are designed to develop your understanding of the biology and transmission of pathogens, as well as infectious disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Specific topics include:

* immune responses to infection

* science and biology of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic pathogens

* modern and emerging diagnostic technologies for infectious diseases

* infection prevention and control and anti-infective therapy

* infections in different contexts such as:

* community- acquired infections * emerging infectious diseases * infectious diseases associated with travel

Beyond the fundamental knowledge you will gain, our aim is to enable you to develop and critically assess cutting-edge research questions in clinical microbiology and infectious diseases.
