Our Epidemiology master's covers the basic epidemiology of cancer, children's health and adult-onset diseases, with an emphasis on practical application.


Our Epidemiology MRes is for graduates with a BSc in the life sciences or other science disciplines. It is also suited to intercalating and qualified MBBS or BDS students.


The course includes subject-specific content in the area of epidemiology. You'll develop your own bespoke course by selecting complementary modules. You'll also train in general research principles, and other professional and key skills.


You'll study a subject-specific module in clinical epidemiology. This provides a theoretical and practical understanding of:


  • the value, theoretical basis and practicalities of epidemiology
  • approaches to epidemiological research

You'll be part of a competitive research area. You'll work in academia but also have opportunities to experience industry.
