Jamaica Travel Saver Scholarship for International Students

Application

A Projects for Peace proposal has two parts: a narrative and a budget spreadsheet.

Campus liaisons should work with the applicant to ensure the submitted materials conform with guidance.

Materials not conforming to guidelines will be returned for revision, which may result in missed deadlines.

Teaching and learning

In Semester 1, the taught phase of the course, you will study modern concepts of molecular genetics through intensive laboratory classes. You will be trained in laboratory techniques and will develop your proficiency in experimental design through hands-on laboratory experiments.

Alongside the laboratory classes, you will have a core lecture programme, which is shared between our various postgraduate laboratory-based courses and will develop your specialist knowledge. There are also optional lectures in fields related to your own, which will allow you to increase your understanding of the interdisciplinary aspects of your speciality.
