Regenerative medicine is reshaping clinical medicine as we know it, uncovering new ways to replace, engineer or regenerate cells, tissues and organs lost or injured due to age, disease, or congenital defects. One of the longest-running courses of its kind in the UK, our MSc builds on our reputation for world-class research as a European Centre for Excellence in tissue engineering. Our multidisciplinary course provides a solid foundation in cell biology, human anatomy, physiology and molecular techniques, introducing you to stem cell/gene therapies, new implants, bio/tissue engineering, biomaterials and other novel technologies in this rapidly evolving and exciting discipline.
Cell and tissue engineering has the potential to unlock new treatments for some of the biggest health issues facing society, for diseases of the heart, lungs, eyes, muscle, bone, etc as well as offering possibilities for repairing or regenerating cells of the body, joints and organs.
Capitalising on our exceptional track record of bench and bedside research in regenerative medicine, our MSc introduces you to this dynamic, ever-evolving discipline, which is bringing hope to millions of patients worldwide.
Practical in focus, you’ll gain a solid grounding in cell biology, human anatomy and physiology, and molecular techniques, as well as advanced knowledge of topics in biomaterials, nanotechnology, cell and tissue engineering.
You’ll learn to research strategies to repair, replace and ultimately regenerate various tissues and organs, translating fundamental knowledge in physics, chemistry and biology into practical and effective materials, devices, novel therapies and treatments to solve major clinical problems.
Based in the Guy Hilton Research Centre, you’ll have access to cutting-edge multi-disciplinary research into specialist and novel areas of regenerative medicine with the opportunity to conduct an in-depth research project alongside our world-class researchers. Previous student dissertation projects, for example, have included genetic engineering of heart cells, nanomagnetics for cancer treatment, and 3D bioprinting for disease modelling.
Research at Keele encompasses tissue engineering for the study of cardiovascular diseases and nanotechnology to control behaviour of cells in cases of neural injury or neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s. And, as part of the Versus Arthritis Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Therapies Centre, our researchers work on cell therapy treatments to regenerate damaged bones, joints and muscles in patients with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
As well as excellent preparation for PhD study, this MSc responds to the growing demand for specialists in the rapidly expanding field of stem cells, regenerative medicine, cancer, material science, bio/tissue engineering and associated novel technologies. It can lead to exciting careers in clinical research, technology development, bioprocessing, therapeutics and regenerative medicine within healthcare, life science and medical-related industry or academia.

Career prospects
Purposefully tracked to the emerging regenerative medicine industry, our MSc Cell and Tissue Engineering programme has been designed to prepare you for an exciting future within a range of medical engineering areas, be that in academic or industrial research, regulation and governance, medical materials, devices, therapeutics sectors, or in the clinical arena that aligns to this field of medicine.
The modular structure of the course, with flexibility to choose from a wide range of optional modules, allows you to tailor the course to suit your career aspirations, building on your existing strengths and interests, while developing understanding in key topics. This can open up further career opportunities in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, for example, in bioengineering research.
This is an ideal option for intercalating students who wish to undertake research training in field and an excellent route for those who wish to pursue specialist clinical training or continue their research training in medicine and register for a PhD, typically a requirement to work in the sector.
