The Animal Science MSc by Research program at the University of Lincoln provides students with an opportunity to undertake a substantive piece of independent research under the supervision of specialists in the field. The program is designed for students who want to develop their ability to carry out in-depth qualitative and/or quantitative research. They will have an opportunity to produce outputs suitable for publication in peer-reviewed scientific journals.Course Content: The program is research-intensive with no taught element, instead students conduct independent investigations under the guidance of a supervisory team. Topics can span across a broad spectrum within the Animal Science field, but each student will focus on a specialised area that aligns with the available expertise within the School of Life Sciences.Key Modules: There are no specific modules in this course due to its research-focused nature. However, the student's research project will be determined by the particular specialisation pursued under the guidance of the supervisory team.Accreditations: The program does not mention any specific accreditations.Future Careers: Graduates of this course can potentially progress into careers within the broad range of animal and agri-food sectors. It also significantly enhances the prospects for those wishing to pursue academic or research careers, given that the MSc by Research can be used as a route into a Doctoral program.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page here.
