The University of Essex is known for excellence in its Life Sciences Programs. Just recently, the University has announced two new Masters Degrees in this Faculty; MSc Data Analytics in Health Genomics and MSc Structural Biology and Rational Drug Design.

Genome sequencing is revolutionising the medical field. The ability to sequence and analyse the genome of individuals in a fast and inexpensive manner, provides an unprecedented level of genetic information associated to health and disease. The data processing of such levels of information is challenging, and requires specialised skills in genomics, health and data analysis.

The MSc Data Analytics in Health Genomics will train students to analyse genomic data in connection with health and disease. They will learn to understand how genome sequences are analysed and will receive hands-on experience in data analysis. In addition, this program will familiarize students with gene and genome technologies, as well as giving them the opportunity to develop their professional skills.

MSc Structural Biology and Rational Drug Design: Are you interested in being at the forefront of modern day drug design? Structural biology has become a critical discipline for addressing the health challenges of the 21st century. This includes everything from resurging drug resistance to personalised cancer treatments. Increasingly, it is a critical tool for modern scientists who are working in the field of biomedical sciences.

The MSc Structural Biology and Rational Drug Design degree allows students to understand how macromolecules are organised and how they function on an atomic level. This is particularly important in designing tailor-made drugs, which target specific macromolecules on the molecular level, while trying to minimize side effects. Students will also complete a research project to provide in-depth theoretical background to understand the key concepts of structural biology.

What Makes the Nursing Program at Bangor University in Wales So Special?

Director May 14, 2019 Uncategorised #studyintheuk, BA Nursing, Bachelor of Nursing, Bangor Nursing, Canadian nurses, Clinical Nursing, health science, Health Sciences, Health Studies, healthcare, Nurses, nursing, registered nurse, registered practical nurse, Study in Wales, university of bangor

The 3 yr (Hons) BN in Nursing at Bangor University is part of the well-respected School of Health Sciences. The program is now open to Canadian applicants for the first time ever. The program is 3 FULL calendar years which makes it slightly longer than many of the programs here at home. In addition, Canadian trained RPN’s can likely complete the program in just two years. After finishing the program candidates are qualifed as nurses in the UK. In order to work back in Canada, graduates must undergo the same process as any other internationally trained nurse.

One very important aspect of the BN Nursing at Bangor is that half of the time is spent in lectures and the other half is spent gaining clinical experience which is necessary for gaining entrance to the job market upon graduation. The extreme competitiveness of nursing programs in provinces such as Ontario means that many excellent nursing candidates are not being accepted for training. The marks required for entrance to the program at Bangor must be strong but are not as high as the requirements in Ontario and many other provinces.

The School of Health Sciences tries to put the voices of students at the heart of everything that happens. Here are some of the ways that they do that:

Seeking the views of students about their programmes of study, and how their learning is supported
Using a ‘Let Us Hear What You Think’ strategy to capture students’ experiences
Taking part in national student surveys and share good practice
Student Representatives work in partnership with the School to address key issues around the student experience
A Staff Student Liaison Committee where to regularly review how the School is engaging with students.

These strategies enable working together to provide the best possible environment for learning and the advancement of healthcare.

The School wants to insure that students get the most out of their time at Bangor University. There are a range of student-led societies which provide opportunities to share interests and experiences. The School also actively supports students to attend regional and national conferences and networking events in healthcare. Finally there is collaboration with Student Representatives and the Students’ Union to identify new ways of ensuring a positive experience for students within the School.
