该硕士利用我们在植物遗传学方面的独特专业知识来提供专家
Our one-year MSc in Plant Genetics and Crop Improvement is perfect training if you plan to study for a further degree in plant genetics, or alternatively, a career in plant breeding and crop improvement. It’s a unique opportunity to study plant molecular genetics and its potential applications in the 21st century, within an environment of academic and research excellence. <br>At UEA, you’ll benefit from teaching by research staff at John Innes Centre, and a number of leading plant breeding and plant biotechnology companies within the UK. In your taught modules, you’ll cover subjects including plant molecular genetics and biotechnology, target traits for crop improvement, and plant breeding with statistics – as well as learning key transferable skills such as laboratory research and communication skills. An important element of the course is the substantial six-month laboratory-based research project that you’ll conduct supervised by a senior scientist. <br>This MSc in Plant Genetics and Crop Improvement enables you to explore the theoretical basis of plant breeding and statistics, plant genetics, genomics and bioinformatics, while at the same time gaining valuable practical experience. You'll also receive training in key transferable skills.<br>For your research module, you’ll work alongside world-leading scientists at John Innes Centre, The Sainsbury Laboratory, the Earlham Institute, or possibly with an industry partner. The John Innes Centre, which is based in Norwich Research Park, is one of the world’s leading research institutes in plant genetics and crop improvement. So, there are a few better places to study this topic within a world-class teaching and research environment. <br>With this expert, cutting-edge training, you’ll have the perfect grounding to move onto a PhD, or alternatively into a career within the plant breeding industry. In recent years, the career prospects for students with a postgraduate degree in plant genetics and crop improvement have been very good, often leading to a PhD or employment within the UK plant breeding industry.<br><br>
