Master of Research - MRes
Summary
The MRes Applied Biomedical Sciences Research programme has been designed to serve biomedical, medical, and life sciences graduates wanting to embark on a Masters of Research degree focusing on human health and disease.
- Completion of the programme will lead to a professionally recognised qualification, being externally approved by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS).
- Graduates will be equipped with the skills and subject-specific knowledge needed to pursue a research-based career in academic biomedicine.
- The programme focuses on laboratory-based clinical research and provides ideal training for students who want to work in the industry, or subsequently wish to move onto a PhD programme, or who simply wish to undertake a significant research project at the Masters level.
Key Course Features
- Biomedical Science is taught by enthusiastic academic and clinical professional staff in modern, spacious laboratories housed at the Maelor Academic Unit of Medical & Surgical Sciences (MAUMSS) based in Wrexham, and at Wrexham University.
- Taught modules to develop understanding of the principles and application of research relevant to your discipline followed by a research project.
- Teaching involves a range of methods including lectures, seminars, laboratory practicals, group discussions and presentations.
- Experimental work is an integral part of the programme. The academic and clinical staff are research active, and continually strive to promote research within areas of biomedical and clinical sciences, where they regularly publish their research findings and discuss their work at national and international conferences.
- Blended learning is a feature of this course, enabling students to travel for the taught element of the course without having to commit to living in Wrexham or the locality full time. Each module takes the form of a learning package consisting of a three-day block of face-to-face teaching supported by online learning.
- This approach is favoured by employers wishing to release their employees to study whilst still meeting service needs.
