Program Description

MSc Human Physiology course is based around seven core units which you will study over the course of one year.During the masters, you’ll cover five core units based around various aspects of human physiology. This includes looking in detail at the musculoskeletal and cardiorespiratory systems and the impact and pathological changes in disease states. You’ll also explore advanced aspects of neuroscience, from fundamental processing in healthy nervous systems to neurological disorders, and nutritional and exercise physiology.The fifth physiology focussed unit is Applied Physiology Techniques, where you’ll learn technical skills across a range of techniques used in physiological research and apply these to current research challenges.

We have designed our Research Methods and Ethics in Biomedical Science unit to help you develop advanced skills in research methods. You’ll explore the evidenced-based and ethical frameworks you’ll need to complete your own in-depth, independent research project.Your final unit is your research project. This is your chance to tackle the issues that fascinate you most. With a deep dive into a topic of your choice, your project will help you understand both the process and the communication of scientific enquiry. You’ll be guided through your proposal and review process to equip you with the skills you need to complete an independent piece of research.
