46 Master's degrees offered by the university

Digital Cancer Technologies
As part of the Digital Cancer Technologies from University of Glasgow programme, students will also gain hands on experiences of how to design large data projects relating to bioinformatics and receive training in running basic image analysis using a digital platform and the analysis of the data output.

Biotechnology
Help solve real world problems with advanced practical knowledge underpinning modern biotechnology and molecular genetic technologies. The aim of the Biotechnology programme at the University of Glasgow is to train you in a broad range of topics including environmental biotechnology, synthetic biology, plant engineering, stem cell therapies and vaccine development.

Brain Sciences
The aim of the Brain Sciences programme of the University of Glasgow is to help you gain interdisciplinary knowledge “from molecules to mind” and develop research skills in cognitive brain imaging, fundamental neuroscience and brain disorders.

Applied Neuropsychology
The Applied Neuropsychology programme of the University of Glasgow focuses on how linguistic research can help solve language-related problems in professional practice and public life.

Chemistry
The research in the Chemistry programme at the University of Glasgow provides an excellent foundation for any kind of career of scientific leadership in academia and industry.

Biotechnology and Management
Bridging the gap between biology, technology and business management, our programme is taught in collaboration with the Adam Smith Business School. The aim of the Biotechnology and Management programme of the University of Glasgow is help you gain sound understanding of the nature of business based on bioscience knowledge, research and industry and how all are applied to solve real world problems.

Infection Biology (with Specialisms)
The Infection Biology (with Specialisms) programme of the University of Glasgow will help you to develop your knowledge and understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which bacteria, viruses and parasites cause disease in humans and in domesticated animals, and the immune responses generated as a result.

Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering
The Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering programme at the University of Glasgow has a research division that is home to more than 70 research students working in fields as diverse as atomic force microscopy, quantum sensors, high speed optical devices and atomistic device simulations.

Molecular Pharmacology
The research in the Molecular Pharmacology programme of the University of Glasgow is focused on the structure and function of GPCRs and understanding the signalling pathways that are important for different physiological and pathophysiological responses.

Bioinformatics
The Bioinformatics programme of the University of Glasgow is an exciting and innovative programme that has recently been revamped. Bioinformatics is a discipline at the interface between biology, computing and statistics and is used in organismal biology, molecular biology and biomedicine.

Infectious Disease
The Infectious Disease programme of the University of Glasgow takes a highly interdisciplinary approach to the study of infectious disease that combines mathematical and statistical modelling with ecology, evolutionary biology, parasitology, immunology and bioinformatics and the social sciences.

Chemistry
The Chemistry programme of the University of Glasgow will extend your depth and breadth of knowledge in all branches of chemistry, suitable for a professional chemist capable of conducting research.
Pre-Master's for Science and Engineering
The Pre-Master's for Science and Engineering prepares you for a postgraduate degree at the University of Glasgow.

Medical Genetics and Genomics
The aim of the Medical Genetics and Genomics programme of the University of Glasgow is to provide you with a working knowledge of the principles and practice of Medical Genetics and Genomics allowing you to evaluate, choose and interpret appropriate genetic investigations for individuals and families with genetic disease

Cardiovascular Sciences
The aim of the Cardiovascular Sciences programme of the University of Glasgow is to deliver teaching related to cardiovascular science and biology with an emphasis on the epidemiology, genetics, pathological and molecular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular diseases and their pharmacological management.

Plant Science
The research in the Plant Science programme of the University of Glasgow covers topics such as plant-environment interactions, cell signalling, cell and membrane biology, protein structure and function, gene regulation, synthetic biology, systems biology and translational biology.

Quantum Technology
The Quantum Technology programme of the University of Glasgow will provide training in the emerging area of quantum technologies, giving students advanced training in the relevant physics and engineering, while acquiring key skills in micro/nanofabrication. This MSc is underpinned by Glasgow leadership in the UK’s Quantum Technology programme.

Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
The Nanoscience and Nanotechnology programme of the University of Glasgow teaches skills desired by modern industry for scientists and engineers doing research, development and production in nanoscience and nanofabrication. This multidisciplinary programme complements backgrounds in electronics, materials science, or physics.

Physics and Astronomy
The Physics and Astronomy programme of the University of Glasgow covers a wide range of topics, including solar and plasma physics, cosmology and radio astronomy. Much of our research in solar physics concentrates on the theory, diagnostics and observation of solar flares, complementing our work in more general plasma theory and atmospheric plasmas.

Mathematics
The Mathematics programme of the University of Glasgow combines world-leading research expertise in pure and applied mathematics and statistics in areas such as mathematical biology, fluid dynamics, geometry and topology and environmental statistics.
