This exciting new course is designed to equip you with the knowledge and application of science and technology to tackle todays global challenges. It offers specialisms in plant, microbial and animal biotechnology. The overarching theme is based upon understanding the fundamental cellular mechanisms, genetic manipulations of biological systems and production processes.
One of the important factors when considering a master's degree is the cost of study. Luckily, there are many options available to help students fund their master's programme. Download your copy of the Scholarship Guide to find out which scholarships from around the world could be available to you, and how to apply for them.
From pioneering MRI technology to combating modern slavery, hunger and climate change, the University of Nottingham is at the forefront of global change. This knowledge feeds directly into your teaching, as many of our academics are active researchers. With 100% of our research recognised internationally (Research Excellence Framework 2021), you’ll be learning from experts in the field. We are a top 30 university, with over 20 courses in the top 10 in the Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2025. Our five subject areas are: • Arts and humanities • Engineering • Medicine and Health Sciences • Science • Social Sciences (home to Nottingham University Business School) We offer a range of courses, including foundation degrees, undergraduate degrees, postgraduate masters, PhD opportunities and apprenticeships, as well as English language and academic writing courses. Whatever your specialism, career skills are embedded in everything we do, from on-course teaching, industry-led projects and placement years to extracurricular activities, such as the Nottingham Advantage Award. You have the freedom to tailor your degree to your interests and skillset through optional modules too. Our connections with top employers, including Deloitte, Jaguar Land Rover and Walt Disney Company, to name just a few, mean there are plenty of opportunities for you to explore. Our Careers and Employability Service is on hand with careers advice and events throughout the year. Plus, you’ll gain access to our alumni network – a global community of over 340,000 Nottingham graduates. Most of our students can also choose to study abroad, gaining invaluable skills and independence, alongside the experience of a lifetime – spending anything from one week to one year abroad.
