MSc Biotechnology with Data Analytics

... United Kingdom
... University of Bedfordshire

Course Overview

This course gives you an advanced understanding of molecular biology, computational biology and microbiology alongside teaching you valuable IT skills in data analytics that you can apply to solving real-world problems.

Modern biotechnology is a hugely complex subject, drawing from a range of scientific fields. On this course, you learn the latest new technologies in key areas; gain insights into how they are used in the global biotechnology industry; and discover how microbes can be used on an industrial scale to benefit humankind.

You also hone your research skills with a laboratory-based project in one of five taught areas: molecular biology; computational biology; applied microbiology; analytical biology; and biomaterials.

The data analytics units are designed for non-computing graduates looking to apply IT in their work. They cover a wide range of topics including programming; databases; security; project management; and computer networking.

General Eligibility

Applicants should have a good undergraduate degree at Honours level, or equivalent.

To apply for a postgraduate degree (MA/MSc/MBA/LLM) at the University of Bedfordshire you should have a good honours degree (or equivalent qualification) in an appropriate subject from a recognised university or HE institution.
