THE FACULTY OF NATURAL SCIENCES | 55 “Our programmes build scientific skills and awareness of the issues relevant to our sustainable development, health and quality of life. As one of our students you will experience an excellent quality of teaching from world-leading academics. Proud of the positive impact our research continues to have on the world today; we welcome you to be part of this.” Professor Jonathan Wastling - Pro Vice-Chancellor and Executive Dean Faculty of Natural Sciences We are renowned for our interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach, and our Faculty of Natural Sciences is central to building scientific skills and awareness of the issues relevant to both our sustainable development and quality of life for today and all our futures. We integrate world-class research with the very best teaching and the latest innovations. Natural Sciences is inherently interdisciplinary. Our strength is in the crossover between science subjects that has sparked much national and international research, which we use to constantly inform and update our curriculum, to challenge and benefit our students. It is exciting times too; with the increasing popularity of sciences at Keele, we are in the middle of a large capital investment programme totalling approximately £45M. Our students will benefit from the brand new state of the art Life Sciences teaching laboratories opening in September 2017, with associated research facilities. In addition to this, plans for multi-user science teaching laboratories, housed within a new build are scheduled for completion by September 2019. Accreditations MSc Biomedical Blood Science programme is accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science.
