You will take two taught modules before moving to the research component. You will be able to choose your main discipline before joining the course, and this might include one from cancer biology, cardiovascular disease, dementia, diabetes, gastroenterology, immunology, oncology, stem cell biology, or psychological medicine. You will also join a research team at Chester Medical School and the medical staff at one of our partner hospital trusts.

We are here to help you plan your future, make the most of your time at University, and to enhance your employability. We provide access to part-time jobs, and extra-curricular employability-enhancing workshops and offer practical one-to-one help with career planning, including help with CVs, applications, and mock interviews. We also deliver group sessions on career planning within each course and we have a wide range of extensive information covering graduate jobs and postgraduate study.
