Course Overview
The M.Sc. Clinical Immunology program at Malla Reddy Vishwavidyapeeth, Hyderabad, is designed to provide advanced knowledge and hands-on training in the study of the immune system and its role in health and disease. This postgraduate program focuses on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying immune responses, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of immune-related diseases.
This program focuses on equipping students with the theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills from 1st semester itself. The curriculum covers topics such as immunopathology, autoimmune diseases, immunotherapy, molecular immunology, and immunodiagnostic techniques. Students gain practical experience in laboratory settings, learning to perform immunological assays, analyze immune responses, and apply immunological principles to clinical settings for disease management.
Graduates of this program emerge as ‘Skilled Clinical Immunologists, Immunology Researchers, and Laboratory Technologists’, enabling them to pursue further higher studies and do research in Immunology along with plenty of job opportunities globally in hospitals, research institutions, diagnostic labs, and pharmaceutical companies.
