Respiratory diseases affect over a billion people worldwide and represent one of the greatest challenges facing modern healthcare. On this MSc, you’ll develop advanced expertise in respiratory medicine through an integrated study of respiratory biology, physiology, diagnostics, therapeutics and clinical decision-making.

You’ll explore how respiratory diseases develop, how they are investigated using contemporary diagnostic technologies, and how evidence-based treatments are selected and applied in clinical practice. The curriculum progresses from foundational respiratory science to advanced diagnostics, respiratory diseases, therapeutics and complex clinical decision-making, providing a comprehensive understanding of modern respiratory medicine.

A distinctive feature of the course is its close integration with University College London Hospitals (UCLH) and the Royal Free Hospital. You’ll gain exposure to specialist respiratory services, advanced diagnostic technologies, multidisciplinary team (MDT) working and translational respiratory research within world-leading clinical and academic environments.

Through clinical immersion activities, diagnostic observation sessions, outpatient clinic observations, MDT meetings and case-based learning, you’ll develop an understanding of how respiratory medicine is delivered in real-world healthcare settings.

Whether you’re a clinician, biomedical scientist, clinical scientist, allied health professional or life science graduate, this course will prepare you for careers in healthcare, clinical research, academia, industry or doctoral study.
