In today`s highly competitive job market many bioscience undergraduate students feel that they struggle to compete for entry level positions due to insufficient practical experience.

BioGrad have developed a range of short courses for graduate students that offer laboratory training in specific practical techniques. These courses provide practical tuition in the areas of microbiology, genetics, agri-food and pharmaceutical research.

Courses are offered at a range of experience levels from the one day Laboratory Skills course for the complete beginner, to Practical Skills in Drug Discovery for those with more experience. Students can select the course suitable for their experience level and build up their practical skill sets by adding more courses.

Our lecturers are selected from researchers working in both industry and academia in order to make sure we are teaching the most up to date techniques. All courses have a low student to tutor ratio to ensure you obtain the best learning environment possible. Courses include a lunch on each day, with time for networking and seeking advice from the lecturers available. Over the years, BioGrad lecturers have taught essential practical skills to thousands of graduate students to help develop students CV`s and improve their employability after graduation.

BioGrad offer courses in specifically designed teaching laboratories located at two campuses. The industrial laboratory is located at the BioPark in Welwyn Garden City and the academic teaching laboratories at the Open University in Milton Keynes. Some courses are offered at both locations to allow students to select their preferred teaching environment or travel arrangements, however a few courses are only available at one location due to the requirement of large and expensive equipment located within the laboratory.
