MSc Antimicrobial Resistance​


Picture
Supported by the Florey Institute, this one year Masters in Science Course is designed to train you for a career tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and its future challenges to global health
Picture
This course will develop a global appreciation of the scale of the problem through studying aspects of public health and global political engagement. Designed in collaboration with the NHS, you'll learn about the latest clinical practice in the fast-moving area of AMR and through guest lectures from experts in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, you'll gain a real-world insight into the different approaches in the challenge of overcoming this global threat.

You'll get hands-on in the lab with modules led by our Florey Scientists and Clinicians including: Infectious Disease and Antimicrobials, AMR and Current Clinical Practice and Global Policy, Disease Control and New Therapies. You can find out more about the research we carry out at our institute here and the course structure by following the embedded links.

The most significant part of the course is the Research Project in Antimicrobial Resistance. Here you'll spend 3 months researching an area of your choice that matches your future career aspirations that may include microbiology and host-pathogen interactions, public health or drug discovery and new therapies. Some students may have the opportunity to complete their research project with the NHS.
​

In addition to technical skills and specialist knowledge of AMR, throughout your course you’ll also develop transferable skills around problem solving and communication, sought after by employers around the globe. In order to build these skills, you’ll learn through a mixture of working in a research laboratory, lectures, seminars, workshops and small group discussions. Assessment includes, but is not limited to, a project report, examinations, essays and a portfolio.
