The MSc(Res) in Cancer Medicine will provide students with new knowledge of how precision medicine can improve and shape future healthcare. Students will gain hands-on experience of molecular techniques and the equipment/devices used in a modern molecular laboratory; the course will provide training in laboratory and research skills that are applicable across multiple scientific disciplines in a supportive learning environment. Central to this research-intensive programme is a 24-week Research Project (which runs throughout both semesters) where students undertake hands-on research training within active research teams. Through taught modules students will be able to evaluate how novel therapeutic approaches can be used to stratify patients into treatment groups for better clinical management (stratified / precision medicine). They will observe the delivery of precision medicine through tours of the Northern Ireland Cancer Centre. There are optional modules in the second semester allowing students to explore the fundamental principles of carcinogenesis and the translational approaches (including cutting edge technologies) which allow cancer scientists and clinicians to advance our understanding and treatment of cancers. The Precision Cancer Medicine stream provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of the hallmarks of cancer from the role of genetic/epigenetic alterations, cell cycle control and metastases/angiogenesis to the development of applications to help diagnose cancers earlier, improve treatments, rationally design clinical trials and reduce chemotherapy drug resistance. The Radiation Oncology stream will develop skills in understanding the biological principles of radiotherapy and its clinical applications in the treatment of cancer. This will include the physical and chemical basis of radiation interactions and the biological consequences of radiation exposures. Clinical aspects of Radiation Oncology will be covered including the principle of advanced radiotherapy delivery, cancer imaging techniques and biomarker discovery. The Oncology Drug Discovery stream will give an insight into both academic and biotech drug development. The course will provide an understanding of what makes an interesting anti-cancer drug target and how, as researchers, we validate this target for clinical use. In addition, you will also gain an understanding of the different drug development platforms that are currently employed for hit identification, hit to lead development and preclinical candidate selection. Importantly, all streams show how our improved understanding of the molecular processes driving cancer growth and spread can be ‘translated’ through research-intensive MSc projects to improve the treatment and survival of cancer patients. -

The MSc in Public Health is a challenging and rewarding programme designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to public health for students who intend to pursue careers in public health practice, management and/or research at local, national and/or supranational levels. The core focus of the programme is on improving the health and wellbeing of populations, preventing health problems before they occur and reducing inequalities in health. -

This program involves different scientific fields of natural sciences, technological sciences, and humanities as well. The focus of investigations is on the phenomena of cognition - perception, attention, memory, reasoning, thinking, and behavior - from an interdisciplinary perspective: Anthropology, Artificial Intelligence, Biology, Linguistics, Neuroscience, Philosophy, and Psychology have contributed to its development as core disciplines. -

Le Master Clinique a pour objectif de faire acquérir une compétence professionnelle technique aux étudiants qui se destinent à exercer dans le domaine de la psychologie clinique et pathologique ou de la neuropsychologie. Le programme est conçu de façon à assurer une formation théorique, méthodologique et technique adaptée aux exigences de l’exercice de la profession de psychologue et des responsabilités qu’elle confère. Les enseignements visent à former un praticien qui soit, à la fois, un intervenant assuré des méthodes d’examen et d’aide psychologique les plus actuelles et un interlocuteur compétent au sein d’une équipe multidisciplinaire. -

The Master in International Health (MIH) aims to develop the capacity of health professionals planning to work at the interface of international organizations and national health systems. It is a flexible program with options for fulltime or parttime study. -

This course provides a stimulating, challenging and enjoyable experience of studying cancer biology with practical applications at the forefront of the cancer field. Led by research-active cancer biologists, you will develop an understanding of the pathogenesis of malignant transformation from cellular to whole system level, discussing methods for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. Cancer biology plays a pivotal and essential role in healthcare. This course is designed in response to the demand across industries for highly skilled researchers. The component subjects are at the forefront of modern science and attract leading-edge research activity. The programme aims to explore normal and pathological cell processes, relating these to clinical features, diagnostic procedures and responses to therapy in neoplastic disease. You can customise your learning by selecting a speciality from translational research, genomics and proteomics and current laboratory applications. -

In the face of escalating global healthcare issues, there’s a growing need to take a holistic approach to consider the interconnectedness of humans, animals, plants and the environment. By linking ideas, research and policies from multiple sectors, One Health works towards achieving better health outcomes, a concept endorsed by the World Health Organisation. -

The MSc is awarded by Universita Telematica Internazionale UNINETTUNO and will help you to become a leader in this dynamic and fast-paced sector! The MSc programme is tailored to individuals looking to become world-class leaders in international health management. You will be passionate and inquisitive, with a desire to lead health organisations through challenges. You will achieve this by developing excellent decision-making and problem-solving skills as well as by growing your understanding of this demanding sector. -

The Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering is designed to prepare students to apply engineering principles to problems in medicine and biology; to understand and model attributes of living systems, and to synthesize biomedical systems and devices in order to improve human health. -
