Postgraduate MSc Full-time 1 Year ZoologyBiology

About this course

Overview Stem cells are a powerful research tool, presenting fantastic opportunities to model disease and harness development of tissues, organ systems, and even body plans in vitro.

Stem cells may be derived from healthy or diseased individuals. From them we can generate tissues and organs for use in disease modelling, drug development and cell-replacement therapies.

This dynamic MSc in Stem Cells in Development, Disease and Regeneration provides you with a solid foundation in fundamental theory, along with hands-on practical training. The course covers a wide range of topics, placing stem cells within the broader context of life sciences, including development, disease, and regeneration.

As part of your studies, you'll also acquire a diverse set of transferable skills designed to boost your employability across industry, government, and non-government organisations.

Upon completion of the course, you'll be exceptionally well-qualified to apply for PhD programmes, both nationally and internationally, in this cutting-edge field.
