Genetics - Msc in University of Kent

Conduct cutting edge research in the field of Bacterial, Fungal, Animal or Human Genetics and open up a future career in academic research, the industrial and health-care sector.

You gain training in cutting-edge and cross-disciplinary laboratory research applying techniques such as advanced genetic engineering (CRISPR-Cas9 and classical genetic engineering), prognosis and diagnosis of genetic diseases and epigenetics,

Your research will contribute to the fields of evolution, reproduction and genome organisation, cancer and ageing, infectious diseases, and industrial biotechnology.

You are based in a research lab and undertake research on a project agreed with your Research Supervisor. As this is a research-focused master's course, you take an interactive approach to learning, rather than taking traditional lectures. Seminars, workshops and lab meetings enable you to gain an in-depth understanding of the field. A wide range of courses and workshops are available for your professional development as a research scientist.

Study for the MSc degree, a one-year research project (Full time), can also be undertaken as a two-year project (Part time). In all our research degrees you undertake a single, focused, research project from day one, and attend only certain components of our transferable skills modules. Our research degree students are supervised by supervisory teams which comprise their main supervisor(s) as well as supervisory chairs that give independent advice on progression. The MSc culminates in the submission of a written research dissertation and oral viva voce examination. Additionally, you present your results at the annual Postgraduate Symposium in July.
