In infants worldwide, infectious disease accounts for higher mortality and morbidity than any other disease category. Tackling the burden of infectious disease on humanity is recognized as a health priority by the World Health Organisation and the United Nations. This Postgraduate Degree responds to the international need for research scientists by training biological and biomedical graduates to develop their knowledge and research skills in immunology and infection.

The course combines practical and theoretical teaching from scientists and clinicians in the University's College of Life Sciences. Of great value to potential employers, the system also gives you research experience in a six-month research project.
