MSc in Medical Sciences (by Thesis)

Hull York Medical School

The MSc in Medical Sciences (by Thesis) is ideal for you if you want to get involved in postgraduate research, and obtain the skills to progress to a PhD or MD.

The MSc by Thesis gives you an opportunity to conduct an independent research project. You can work in a wide range of areas. Our current students are researching topics as diverse as interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, care of the newborn infant, and the development of new methods for analysing cell-to-cell interactions in tissue using a micro-fluidic based approach.

Throughout your degree, you will be supervised by a leading expert in the field and supported by a Thesis Advisory Panel.

The programme is a popular option for intercalating medical students. An intercalated MSc by Thesis provides you with an exciting research environment where you can develop your research skills at a higher level. You will gain in-depth specialist knowledge and research experience through your independent research project.

The programme is delivered at either the University of Hull or University of York (depending on your supervisor’s parent university).
