MSC Nanomedicine

MSC Nanomedicine is a Masters program taught at University of Manchester, UK. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (12 months full-time) options.

The University of Manchester’s MSc Nanomedicine gives an in-depth understanding of nanomedicine, the biological effects of nanomaterials, and therapeutic applications. The course covers the role of nanomedicine within healthcare innovation, including interactions with biological systems, delivery of therapeutics (including COVID-19 vaccine and cancer therapies), biomarker discovery, bioimaging, and the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Delivered as a 12 months full-time programme in person, the MSc includes a 25-week lab-based research project to develop research skills. The course prepares students for a PhD, specialist clinical training, or careers in nanotoxicology, nanomedicine, pharmaceuticals, or biotechnology.
