The University of Queensland Molecular Biology

Acquire high-level knowledge and develop practical skills relevant to modern molecular biology research or industry practice. With UQ's Master's programs in Molecular Biology, you can build practical skills as you experience laboratory techniques such as electrophoresis, polymerase chain reaction, endonuclease mapping, fluorescent reporters, and expression vectors.

You'll develop an advanced knowledge of the structure and function of genes and the proteins they encode. Your study will cover genome sequencing, recombinant DNA technology, and macromolecular structure determination. Through laboratory practicals, workshops, projects, and directed study, you'll receive training in bioinformatics, molecular genetics, biomolecular structure and function, and immunology. You'll also gain practical insights and crucial research skills by undertaking a research-focused internship or project with our industry partners.
