Overview
Exit Award only
Students on the MSc (Bioinformatics and Computational Biology) programme who do not reach the average mark of 50% threshold required to progress to the research dissertation will be conferred with a Postgraduate Diploma in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
Similarly, students who pass the taught modules and do not wish to complete the research dissertation, may opt to be conferred with a Postgraduate Diploma in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
