Cell Biology - Msc in University of Kent, UK

Cell Biology - Msc in University of Kent

Conduct cutting-edge research under the guidance of leading experts in cell biology leading to a career in industry or academia. You are trained in state of the art cross-discipline techniques including Transmission and Scanning Electron Microscopy, Confocal Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy. Your research will contribute to a range of fields including cancer and ageing, cellular architecture and dynamics, infectious diseases and evolution, reproduction and genome organisation.

Based in a research lab, you 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 will 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.

Find a Supervisor

Opportunities for research projects vary annually. A list of projects available for September 2020 will be available in due course. Please contact the academic you have identified as a possible supervisor to discuss the possibility of undertaking a Masters by Research under their supervision. You should supply a CV including details of your relevant experience. Alongside this contact, please make an online application for the programme by clicking on the 'Apply now' box at the top of the page.

Also you will find a list of academics who are open to supervising MSc by Research students along with their research interests in the 'Staff Research' section on the right. You are welcome to contact these academics to discuss project opportunities more generally in their research area.
