School of Clinical Sciences, Wolfson Centre for Stem Cells, Tissue Engineering and Modelling (STEM)
MSc Stem Cell Technology
The MSc in Stem Cell Technology was developed in response to the training needs of a rapidly expanding scientific area, aiming to facilitate the careers of graduates in this innovative area of science and biomedicine. Researchers and professionals with an understanding of stem cell technology and the international regulatory and ethical frameworks that govern stem cell use are vital to its applications to medicine and industry. The MSc offers the necessary skills to enable the effective integration of stem cell science expertise with research, clinical and commercial applications.
We have designed a course that is able to deliver an intensive and applied knowledge base to interdisciplinary stem cell research and the transferable skills required to communicate and apply this learning. The course will enable you to pursue a clear career path in either research or industry, with the necessary expertise to compete in an ever changing world.
Our course is suitable for those with a science related background, for example from biology, physical science or bioengineering degrees. In addition, it is suitable for business, mathematics, and medicine graduates who wish to continue in their chosen disciplines with stem cell specialisations. Candidates must normally be graduates of an approved university, or other institution of higher education. The minimum requirement for entry is a 2(i) degree or equivalent.
BBSRC and MRC Studentships
In recognition of the career potential of the course, we have been awarded full MRC and BBSRC studentships for high-performing Home/EU students joining the course in October 2009. For further details please contact the Course Administrator at mscstem@nottingham.ac.uk
