This is the only master’s course in sensory science in the UK. You will acquire skills and experience on completion which will significantly enhance your employability either within a research environment or in industry. The intensive, modular nature of the part-time route also makes it easily accessible if you are currently working in the food and allied industries.
In addition to course fees, both full-time and part-time options require industrial support and sponsorship for completion of your research project.
Key facts- The course is co-ordinated by the Sensory Science Centre, within the school's Food Sciences group - the highest rated University Food Sciences Research Group in the UK, based at the Sutton Bonington Campus.
- The School of Biosciences has consistently achieved high ratings in independent UK assessments of both research and teaching quality. The most recent (2008) Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) confirmed our top position in the UK in terms of research power.
