Overview

This Genetics and Multiomics in Medicine course from University College London (UCL) uniquely combines the clinical and scientific expertise within the UCL Division of Medicine to train students in domains that are required by the recent developments in science and medicine but are rarely covered within one course.

It is aimed at students from a wide range of backgrounds, from scientists and statisticians to computer professionals and clinicians. The complex nature of the problems that are tacked by this area of medical sciences would be very appealing to students looking for a challenge.

Career opportunities

The skills developed during this programme will form a solid basis for further development and specialisation for careers in academic and industrial research, clinical medical genetics, and bioinformatics.

The programme is designed to teach a wide range of transferable skills: academic writing, scientific presentation, gathering and organising evidence; how to critically analyse data and present a structured argument; how to approach a project, undertake independent research and present findings to a variety of audiences.
