Plan Structure

The structure of this 48 UOC program is decided after discussions with students, taking into account their particular background, interest and career goals. Usually students will attend one or more of the advanced third year courses in either microbial genetics, microbial physiology, environmental microbiology, immunology, medical bacteriology or virology. The rest of the year will be spent carrying out a research project supervised by a memeber of academic staff.

The School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences has a number of research teams working on a range of well-funded projects in microbiology, molecular biology and immunology. The diverse research interests of the School can be grouped into the areas of Helicobacter pylori and gastroduodenal disease, immunology of allergic responses, environmental microbiology and remediation, microbiology of extremophiles and genomics, bacterial communication systems, marine microbiology and biotechnology.
