Notes: As part of your option course choices, and subject to availability and approval, the following two 10-credit courses from the School of Biomedical Science may be taken during the January semester:
TRME11003 Targeting and measuring disease
TRME11004 Challenges of drug development: past and future
Note: Each course runs for five weeks, and is worth 10 credits at Masters level. In order to maintain equivalence with the LLM modules, worth 20 credits, you would therefore need to complete both Translational Medicine courses successfully.
