Eric, MSc Cancer & Therapeutics Alumnus

"I enjoyed the interaction between students and lecturers as well as the support provided by the teaching office to international students. Lecturers were always available for students whenever they needed them. I enjoyed the clarity of the courses, which gave us the full package needed for our different career aspirations, be it in clinics, research, industry, and many others. I enjoyed the cultural and professional diversity among students, where we could share our different experiences and learn from each other at the same time."

Sasi, MSc Cancer & Therapeutics Alumnus

"My mentors Professor Richard Grose, Dr Tony Ford, Professor Jude Fitzgibbon were exceptionally dedicated to the welfare of students. The faculty at Queen Mary are highly intellectual and the programme is brilliantly designed. It starts with basic cancer biology, pharmacology and rapidly delves into how the basic science is useful in designing therapeutics for cancer patients."
