Pursuing an MSc degree allows dedicated scientists to concentrate on a specific field of interest while earning an advanced qualification. A taught master's program offers specialized training in your selected discipline, while a research-based master's enhances your investigative abilities through collaboration with Faculty of Science experts - including leading figures in their respective fields. Typically, students begin their MSc after finishing a PGDipSci. The program requires completing 120 credits (with a maximum of 160) in a chosen specialization within one year full-time or two years part-time for research programs, or four years part-time for taught programs. Note that not all specializations provide both study options. For those entering directly from undergraduate studies, 240 credits (maximum 280) must be completed over two years full-time or four years part-time for research programs, or six years part-time for taught programs. Availability of both program types varies by specialization.
