Programme Introduction

Interested to discover new medical breakthroughs for the cellular and molecular basis of human diseases? In our modern times, Biomedical Science plays an important role in improving the health and wellbeing of people worldwide and thence, the Master of Science in Biomedical Science (Cellular and Molecular Pathology) programme is exquisitely designed to help students develop a heightened degree of specialist knowledge and analytical skills that put them in high demand.

To fathom how the human body’s components work individually and collectively, this specialised programme aims to gear students up with the expertise to demonstrate an in-depth and systematic understanding as well as knowledge of Biomedical Science informed by current scholarship and research. On the other hand, students will be intensively exposed to the development, principles and applications of a range of techniques in cellular and molecular pathology.

Upon successful completion, qualified students will be awarded the Master of Science in Biomedical Science (Cellular and Molecular Pathology) by Cardiff Metropolitan University. Graduates can choose to pursue a doctorate or embark on their enriching career as a research scientist, molecular geneticist or cell biologist.

DIMENSIONS International College is an approved academic partner of Cardiff Metropolitan University for the above programme.
