You will be required to conduct an independent research project for your MSc by Thesis, on a subject covered by one of the HYMS research centres or units. Since the MSc by Thesis is done over a shorter period of time than a PhD or MPhil, your project will be smaller but you will still be able to undertake original research. It is ideal if you want to get involved in postgraduate research without committing straightaway to a longer degree and bigger project. A wide range of MSc projects can be undertaken at HYMS. Current students are researching topics as diverse as interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, care of the newborn infant, and the development of new methods for analysing cell: cell interactions in tissue using a micro-fluidic based approach.
