Where your masters can take youOver half of our MSc graduates go on to doctoral study, some here at Sheffield. Your degree will also prepare you for a career in research in academia or industry, or in a clinical-related field. Demand for graduates with skills in stem cell and regenerative medicine is increasing rapidly. Our graduates are working all over the world – from the UK, to China, India and the USA. Our courses give you the edge you need to succeed in a global careers market. Learn from the expertsSheffield is ranked third in the UK for research in biological sciences, which means much of our work is internationally recognised or excellent. Our reputation attracts staff and students from around the world, making this a vibrant place to study. Regular seminars from distinguished international experts help you to connect your studies to the latest developments. We're also part of collaborative research groups for developmental biology, cell biology, physiology, pharmacology, neuroscience, models of human disease, stem cell science and regenerative medicine. Our three research centres focus on translating laboratory research to the clinical environment – the MRC Centre for Developmental and Biomedical Genetics, the Centre for Stem Cell Biology, and the Centre for Membrane Interactions and Dynamics. All our teaching is drawn from our pioneering research. We are ranked third in the UK for our research in Biological Sciences.Leaders in our fieldYou'll join a department with a track record for groundbreaking discoveries. This includes breakthroughs in human stem cells for hearing repair, the generation of animal models for Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, muscular dystrophies, and their use for therapeutic studies. You'll be taught the most recent advances in research. Labs and equipmentYou also benefit from our modern research space. This includes purpose-built facilities for drosophila, zebrafish, chick and mouse genetics and for molecular physiology. Other facilities provide all the tools you'll need to examine and analyse a range of cellular structures. We have an electron and a light microscopy centre, a PCR robotics facility, a flow cytometry unit and an RNAi screening facility.
