Masters Degrees in Virology

We have 55 Masters Degrees in Virology

Masters degrees in Virology provide comprehensive training in the study of viruses and their effects on human and animal health, agriculture, and the environment.

Specialist topics in this field include Immunology, Immunotherapy, and Pathology. Entry requirements typically include an undergraduate degree in a relevant science subject.

Why study a Masters in Virology?

Courses in Virology equip you to develop scientific solutions to pressing issues such as epidemiology, global warming, and food security. For instance, you may focus on human-animal epidemics, with recent examples being avian and swine influenza. The curriculum predominantly covers virus taxonomy and evolution through methodologies in molecular biology, genetics, and genomics.

Your academic study will include a detailed examination of host-pathogen relationships, analysing the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases through mechanisms like vaccine and drug development. You will enhance your knowledge through practical tasks, developing skills in lab testing, tissue culture examination, DNA sequencing, and bioinformatics.

Traditional career paths include roles in veterinary medicine, healthcare, and food security. More specialised careers may involve positions in biotechnical industries, wildlife conservation, or foreign aid. Your expertise would also be valuable in policy-making within government agencies, NGOs, and charities.
