Course programme

Imaging is essential for diagnosis of disease and development of novel treatments. This programme focuses on translational medical imaging, and the development and use of preclinical imaging technologies to detect, monitor and prevent illnesses such as cancer, heart diseases and neurodegeneration. Students will undertake an independent research-based project in UCL’s world-class laboratories and develop their communication skills in biomedical science.

Students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits.

The programme consists of six core modules (120 credits), and a research dissertation (60 credits).

A Postgraduate Diploma (120 credits, full-time) is offered.

A Postgraduate Certificate (60 credits, full-time) is offered.

Core modules
  • Advanced Biomedical Imaging Techniques I & II
  • Practical Preclinical Research (including Home Office Personal Licence)
  • Translational Biomedical Imaging of Disease and Therapy I & II
  • Science Communication for Biomedicine
  • Statistical Methods in Research
  • Ethics and Regulation of Research
Optional modules
  • There are no optional modules for this programme.
Dissertation/report
  • All MSc students undertake an independent research project which culminates in a dissertation of 7,000 words or a manuscript suitable for submission to a peer-reviewed journal.
Teaching and learning
