Royal Veterinary College, University of London

The MSci in Bioveterinary Sciences is an undergraduate integrated masters degree, the aim of which is to prepare you for a PhD or a career in an academic or industrial research environment, for example within the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industries related to veterinary medicine, but also for other biological and biomedicine-related careers. In addition to the the four-year MSci course, you will undertake a placement year, usually in your third year, to develop work place skills and industry expertise.This programme focuses on developing your knowledge, analytical skills and practical skills. Modules are structured across the first three years of the course to build a broad base of knowledge, whilst also allowing the opportunity to specialise through optional module selections and research projects in your second and third year.The fourth year, which comprises an in depth research project, will build on your knowledge gained from your first three years and develop your scientific and transferable skills further, making you ‘work ready’ and able to realise your full potential as soon as you embark on your chosen career path after graduating from the course.This programme has been accredited by the Royal Society of Biology. Advanced Degree Accreditation by the Society recognises academic excellence in the biosciences, and highlights degrees that educate the research and development leaders and innovators of the future.
