    Middlesex University London

    Middlesex University London was founded in 1878 as St Katherine’s College, dedicated to training teachers to a professional level. Future partner the Hornsey College of Art was founded in 1882 as well as the Ponders End Technical Institute in 1901. These schools combined to become Middlesex Polytechnic in 1973, adding also The Enfield and Hendon […]

    Course Summary

    Middlesex University London’s MSc program in Biomedical Science with a focus in Medical Immunology is designed to greatly expand a life sciences graduate’s understanding of cutting edge immunological concepts and technologies. The program is fully accredited by the IBMS (Institute of Biological Sciences), the leading professional body in this field.

    You’ll learn how immune system disorders develop and are detected, how immunotherapeutic reagents are used in practice, and how to conduct several classes of immunoassays. In addition, you’ll develop the vocabulary and theoretical framework you’ll need to discuss and research medical immunology issues in a clinical or laboratory context.

    This degree program is often taken on a part time basis. This allows students who are already working in the field to gain the educational certifications they need to qualify for promotion to a more responsible role in their organisations. With the right training and certification, nearly anything is possible.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.

    Course Outline

    This program is typically delivered over a single year at full time. It can also be taken at part time over up to two years around work, family or other commitments.

    Though this is presented as an MSc program, there are three levels of certification you can be awarded. If you complete at least 60 credits worth of the modules listed below, you can exit with a Postgraduate Certificate (PgCert) in Biomedical Science. If you complete a the remaining 60 credits of modules listed, you’ll qualify for a Postgraduate Diploma (PgDip) in Biomedical Science. Finally, if you complete the Research Project requirement as well, you can exit with the full MSc.

    You may change your intended exit point at any time during the program.

    PgCert and PgDip Modules Include:

    • Advanced Bioanalytical Techniques
    • Biomedical Ethics and Law
    • Experimental Design and Statistics
    • Immunoassays and Immunotherapeutics
    • Immunology
    • Immunopathology
    • Laboratory Leadership and Management

    The final MSc module is:

    • Research Project

    Learning & Teaching

    If you take this program at full time, a normal week will see you attending 3 or 4 modules at once, each meeting on only one day per week. If you opt for the part time route, you will take only two modules at a time, and meet 2-3 days per week. A typical 15 credit module should require around 40 contact hours and around 110 independent study, reading and research hours.

    Career Possiblities

    Middlesex University London’s MSc, PgDip or PgCert in Biomedical Science prepares you to take on more advanced, responsible and challenging roles within your specialty. For example, a typical student may already be a specialist practitioner at the BMS Band 6 level. After graduation, they could qualify as a higher specialist of BMS Band 7. Not only is this a more prestigious role, it comes with a substantial pay scale upgrade.

    Entry Credit

    Successful completion will result in an MSc degree, a PgDip or a PgCert.

    Students must typically have achieved a 2:2 undergraduate degree in a relevant subject to apply. The full list of accepted qualifications can be found here.

    All classes are taught in English, and international students will be required to show proficiency in English by scoring well on an approved test. An excellent IELTS score would qualify, for example.
