Human and Molecular Genetics MSc

Lecture modules during the MSc provided me with an in-depth understanding of basic genetic principles as well as the latest innovations in genomic science. Projects during the course trained me to competently perform many techniques in the lab, enhancing both my teamwork and leadership skills.

The course also provided me with opportunities to undertake NHS placements, including placements with the pre-karyotyping oncology team at 91Ö±²¥â€™s Children’s Hospital and NHS Next-Generation Sequencing training. I was able to use the knowledge and skills I gained from the MSc during interviews, which was crucial in helping me to secure a place on the genomic counselling NHS Scientist Training Programme. My decision to study at the University of 91Ö±²¥ was one of the best decisions I have made.
