University of Sheffield, School of Biosciences Masters Degrees
We have 14 University of Sheffield, School of Biosciences Masters Degrees
Formed in September 2021, the School of Biosciences brings together more than 100 years of teaching and research expertise from the former departments of Animal and Plant Sciences, Biomedical Science and Molecular Biology and Biotechnology. The school is home to around 120 academics, including Royal Society, RCUK, EU and other Independent Research Fellows, 300 postgraduates supported by Doctoral Training Programmes and Centres, and 1,500 undergraduates. Our expertise spans the breadth and depth of bioscience, including molecular and cell biology, genetics, development, human physiology and pharmacology through to evolution, ecology, biodiversity conservation and sustainability. This makes us one of the broadest and largest groupings of the discipline and allows us to train the next generation of biologists in the latest research techniques and discoveries. We carry out world-leading research to address the most important global challenges such as food security, disease, health and medicine, ageing, energy, and mitigating the biodiversity and climate crises. Within the school we house a number of specialist research facilities. The Arthur Willis Environment Centre provides state-of-the-art 'GroDome' plant growth facilities comprising 16 discrete compartments with the capacity to simulate a range of current environments as well as future climate scenarios. The NERC Environmental Omics Visitor Facility here in Sheffield provides molecular genetics facilities and training to the UK community in the science areas that fall under the remit of the Natural Environment Research Council. Others include a Biological NMR Facility, a Biomolecular Interaction Suite, and the University of Sheffield’s Biological Mass Spectrometry Facility.
