MSc Postgraduate Programs
MSc in Medical Genetics (accredited)
The Medical Genetics MSc programme is targeted at clinicians and scientists who want to gain an in-depth understanding of Medical Genetics as well as the many applications within the broader field of Biomedical Sciences
.The course MG101 is designed to help comprehend the gene and its function, DNA structure, mechanisms of translation and transcription, gene expression, cell division, patterns of inheritance, pedigree analysis and genetic counselling. MG102 covers all the issues of human cytogenetics and genomics and targets that the behaviour of both small and large size genetic changes as well as their pathology aiming at the comprehension of medical genomics with a special emphasis on the investigation of the human genome in medical research and practice. MG103 teaches the fantastic majority of methods which can be applied in Medical Genetics with applicable application examples aiming to assist the student to comprehend, interpret and critically assess laboratory diagnostic and research results. MG104 concentrates on the biochemical facets of hereditary diseases. Each of the above courses pays special attention to examples from the clinically relevant activities of these CING Departments that is the advantage of this programme as compared to those taught at purely academic associations. Last, the pupils need to have a study module that may be a library project, however, the advantage of CSMM is that it enables students to have a laboratory project and work together with the many activities of the CING departments.
Students will have the ability to get an in-depth knowledge of all aspects of Medical Genetics. Clinicians will have the ability to use this knowledge for better management of their future patients with an inherited disease and targeting requests for diagnostic genetic testing. Scientists will have the ability to efficiently work in a diagnostic or research lab addressing the multiple aspects of Medical Genetics. Additionally, the programme will enable graduates to play a major role in future research programmes on Medical Genetics and Translational Medicine, both cutting edge research topics.
