Course summary
Regenerative medicine is reshaping clinical medicine as we know it, uncovering new ways to replace, engineer or regenerate cells, tissues and organs lost or injured due to age, disease, or congenital defects. One of the longest-running courses of its kind in the UK, our MSc builds on our reputation for world-class research as a European Centre for Excellence in tissue engineering. Our multidisciplinary course provides a solid foundation in cell biology, human anatomy, physiology and molecular techniques, introducing you to stem cell/gene therapies, new implants, bio/tissue engineering, biomaterials and other novel technologies in this rapidly evolving and exciting discipline.
Cell and tissue engineering has the potential to unlock new treatments for some of the biggest health issues facing society, for diseases of the heart, lungs, eyes, muscle, bone, etc as well as offering possibilities for repairing or regenerating cells of the body, joints and organs.
Capitalising on our exceptional track record of bench and bedside research in regenerative medicine, our MSc introduces you to this dynamic, ever-evolving discipline, which is bringing hope to millions of patients worldwide.
Practical in focus, youll gain a solid grounding in cell biology, human anatomy and physiology, and molecular techniques, as well as advanced knowledge of topics in biomaterials, nanotechnology, cell and tissue engineering.
Youll learn to research strategies to repair, replace and ultimately regenerate various tissues and organs, translating fundamental knowledge in physics, chemistry and biology into practical and effective materials, devices, novel therapies and treatments to solve major clinical problems.
Your career
Purposefully tracked to the emerging regenerative medicine industry, our MSc Cell and Tissue Engineering programme has been designed to prepare you for an exciting future within a range of medical engineering areas, be that in academic or industrial research, regulation and governance, medical materials, devices, therapeutics sectors, or in the clinical arena that aligns to this field of medicine.
The modular structure of the course, with flexibility to choose from a wide range of optional modules, allows you to tailor the course to suit your career aspirations, building on your existing strengths and interests, while developing understanding in key topics. This can open up further career opportunities in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, for example, in bioengineering research.
This is an ideal option for intercalating students who wish to undertake research training in field and an excellent route for those who wish to pursue specialist clinical training or continue their research training in medicine and register for a PhD, typically a requirement to work in the sector.
