Master of Science - MSc (PG)
Summary
Course Summary Our MSc programme will develop your knowledge and understanding of cancer diagnosis and therapeutics. The course will focus on up-to-date diagnostic techniques and emerging tumour markers and their potential applications in specific diagnostics for various types of cancers. In addition, you will be exploring drug delivery systems and learning to make drug carriers for targeting cancers using nanotechnology. You will also be trained to perform a range of molecular, cellular and proteomics laboratory techniques used for detecting tumour markers and monitoring therapeutic effects.
Why study MSc Cancer Biology and Therapeutics at Middlesex? This course will provide you with the necessary framework and general concepts in the cancer research field, as well as up-to-date and advanced knowledge of cancer diagnosis and treatment.
In addition, you'll be taught by experts who work on the frontline of drug development and drug delivery. You'll acquire useful novel laboratory skills using nanotechnology and the Multiplex drug delivery system, which will equip you with the essential skills for pursuing a range of career options. Once you graduate, you may also choose to proceed to further scientific training or you would be well-equipped to carry out research.
You will be working in laboratories equipped with up-to-date instrumentation including matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI- Tof MS), liquid chromatography (LC)- MS, gas chromatography (GC)- MS, conventional and quantitative PCR, flow cytometry, Confocal microscopy, Licor Imaging system and fully equipped histopathology laboratory and tissue culture facilities.
What will you learn? This course is made up of five core modules: advanced bio-analytical techniques, ethics, leadership, research methods and research project modules. Additionally, there are four 15-credit specialised cancer modules, covering cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The specialised modules are arranged as follows: you will take two modules in term one, which will provide you with the basic concepts of cancer, biomarkers, and general principles of cancer diagnosis and management and haemato-oncology.
Then you will progress to term two, where you'll get further exposure to the advanced knowledge and techniques in cancer diagnostic theories and laboratory practices along with drug delivery systems using nanotechnology.
In term three, you'll conduct a research project which will be based on the theme of cancer. You'll have the support of a supervisor, who will be drawn from the university’s research active staff and will have the appropriate expertise in cancer research.
