Combining both undergraduate and postgraduate study into one degree, our integrated Clinical Science with Immunopathology course will train you to make a difference as a clinical scientist.Clinical scientists are medical and healthcare professionals who research and develop techniques and equipment to help prevent, diagnose and treat illnesses.As such, this integrated Masters degree will give you a deep understanding of this broad subject through studying fields including bioinformatics, clinical biochemistry, microbiology, informatics, genomics and immunopathology.**The course aims to enable you to:**• collect, analyse and provide expert interpretation of clinical and specialist scientific data• make key judgements and communicate scientific and clinical information to ensure patient benefits are maximised, and risks are minimised• develop and apply knowledge to improve patient care in specific clinical science contexts, through the safe application of complex science, engineering, or technology.Delivered by leading academics in the field, the curriculum enables you to understand and potentially apply the latest developments in immunopathology, as well as learn the biological methods employed in the practice of diagnostic and therapeutic immunology.Concluding with a research project on the topic of your choice in immunopathology, this course equips you with the knowledge and skills required to be a clinical scientist with the speciality of immunopathology.**What you'll study**The integrated MSc (MSci) in Clinical Science with Immunopathology degree offers a comprehensive education in clinical and medical sciences, combining undergraduate and postgraduate study into a single, integrated programme.In the early stages, you will explore the biological basis of human health and disease. Core subjects include:• microbiology• genetics• haematology• immunology• anatomy and physiology• pathology• biochemistry. Alongside scientific knowledge, you will develop essential clinical skills such as laboratory techniques for disease diagnosis, communication skills for working with healthcare professionals, and analytical and numeracy skills for interpreting clinical data.At the postgraduate level, you will study specialised areas such as immunological diseases and advanced diagnostic techniques. The MSc component features guest lectures from experts in immunotherapy and immune-related disorders, offering insights into current developments in the field.A key part of the MSc is a research project, where you will apply scientific principles and methodologies to investigate clinical questions related to immunological disorders. This hands-on experience strengthens research and critical thinking skills, preparing graduates for roles in clinical laboratories, research institutions, or further academic study. Teaching is delivered through lectures, practical sessions, seminars, and site visits, providing a rich and immersive learning experience.**What is an integrated Masters degree?**An MSci course allows you to combine a Bachelors and Masters into one package that will be highly valued by potential employers. Thus, instead of completing your BSc and then having to apply separately for a MSc, this integrated degree provides you with one smooth pathway. **Why study an integrated Masters course?**Benefits of studying an integrated Masters include:• no need to reapply for the Masters - you will seamlessly carry on your studies into the fourth year without any issues• you won't have to pay additional fees associated with a standalone masters as postgraduate courses are often more expensive than an undergraduate degree• study your final year at Masters level with the same course mates, staff, campus and facilities you are familiar with.
