Taught modules to develop understanding of the principles and application of research relevant to your discipline followed by a research project. Teaching involves a range of methods including lectures, seminars, laboratory practicals, group discussions and presentations. Experimental work is an integral part of the programme. The academic and clinical staff are research active, and continually strive to promote research within areas of biomedical and clinical sciences, where they regularly publish their research findings and discuss their work at national and international conferences. Blended learning is a feature of this course, enabling students to travel for the taught element of the course without having to commit to living in Wrexham or the locality full time. Each module takes the form of a learning package consisting of a three-day block of face-to-face teaching supported by online learning. This approach is favoured by employers wishing to release their employees to study whilst still meeting service needs.
