Program overview
A master degree in cancer immunotherapy, covering tumour immunology, immune checkpoint mechanisms, cell and gene therapy, clinical trial design and a laboratory research project.
This is a narrow and current specialism, and it asks IELTS 6.0 in every band while refusing Duolingo unlike most masters here.
Master of Science - Cancer Immunotherapy is taught at the University of London Met, a public university in England with full degree awarding powers. Because the cancer immunotherapy masters is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the cancer immunotherapy masters, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the cancer immunotherapy masters plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the cancer immunotherapy masters does not support a family move.
Admission to Master of Science - Cancer Immunotherapy requires a completed bachelor degree or equivalent at 60 percent. The English requirement is IELTS Academic 6.0 with 6.0 in every band, and tuition for the cancer immunotherapy masters is recorded at GBP 20,000. London Met charges no application fee, and London Met charges no application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the cancer immunotherapy masters . The cancer immunotherapy masters lists four entry windows across September and January, which is genuinely flexible. Apply Study Visa manages your the cancer immunotherapy masters application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed bachelor degree or equivalent, at the percentage stated.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 with 6.0 in every band; TOEFL iBT 72 with reading 22, writing 21, speaking 23 and listening 21; PTE Academic 70. The Duolingo English Test is NOT accepted on this course.
