A modular programme backed by online materials in areas such as directed reading, problem solving, lab based experimentation
and programming.

Intensive programme of study to provide a strong background in biology, biochemistry, experimental techniques, mathematics, modelling,
scientific computing, statistical methods and chemistry.

Work in teams and across your cohort to learn collaborative skills and build cross-disciplinary networks.

Go into labs and discover the local culture.  Make a fully informed choice. Two 10-12 week projects.

Carry out three years of exciting research at the forefront of your chosen field.

"When interviewing PhDs it is very hard to find candidates who have demonstrated that they can both complete a significant research project in depth yet have a sufficient breadth of other skills ( e.g. to manage people or clients, write code,  provide sensible guidance on something outside their immediate area of expertise). The DTC ensures that this is all part of the qualification."

The academic network that you develop will provide a springboard for your future career.

Over 500 people in the network. People come from a wide range of backgrounds and follow a wide range of careers.

Over 100 academics involved in the teaching. Over 50 industrialists spoke in the programme last year.
