It helps us understand how the immune system is tricked into attacking its own tissue, leading to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes or allergy.The degree is for suitable for those who want to specialise in a single biomedical science. It’s particularly relevant if you want to pursue a research career.AssessmentKnowledge and understanding are assessed by written exams, essays, presentations and computer-aided learning (CAL) exercises and quizzes, available on our virtual learning environment, Myplace.Competence is assessed through practical tests, practical write-ups, project reports and CAL exercises and quizzes.Communication skills are assessed through essays and oral presentations.Project work is assessed from project reports and oral presentations.There is an individual research project in the final year of the course where you’ll demonstrate research skills, problem-solving and a suitable research approach.CareersWith our MSci Immunology degree, you could be involved in the development of drugs, food processing, protecting the environment, fighting disease or even slowing down the ageing process.Our graduates find jobs in the pharmaceutical, biotech and agrochemical industries, hospitals and public service laboratories, environmental centres, analytical and forensic science labs, universities, the scientific civil service and teaching at all levels.Many students also continue on to postgraduate studies and research.The transferable skills you gain from this course will not only prepare you for a career in science but also in areas such as finance, management, marketing, sales, business and media.
