Taught MSc Programmes

Three distinct MSc degree programmes are offered:

• MSc in Biochemical Engineering – for graduate scientists
• MSc in Biochemical Engineering – for graduate engineers
• MSc in Biochemical Engineering - for graduate biochemical engineers  

All programmes provide students with the opportunity to understand how advances in the life sciences can most effectively be translated into real outcomes of benefit to all. Close linkage of the Master’s programmes with the research activities of the Advanced Centre for Biochemical Engineering (ACBE) ensures that lecture and case study examples are built around the very latest biological discoveries and bioprocessing technologies. Examples include the production, processing and formulation of plasmid DNA for applications in gene therapy and the rational engineering of bacterial metabolic pathways for the production of novel antibiotics to overcome the growing problem of microbial resistance.
