Overview

Cancer Biology and Therapeutics is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Biology is offered as a three year BSc or a four year integrated masters, and the longer route is the usual step towards research.
