Examine the fundamental nature of viruses as cellular parasites on this Master's course. You'll consider their importance in human, animal and plant diseases and explore recent major advances in the understanding of the structure of viruses. The programme also covers the molecular mechanisms of virus replication, virus disease pathogenesis, and the emergence of novel viruses. You'll engage with experts from many areas of virology and molecular biology during the course. Through this collaborative work, you'll develop skills to embark on further study at PhD level or pursue a career in academic or industrial research. Two research projects also provide an opportunity to apply techniques from the course to important research problems.
