The Biosciences Programme of the Continuing Professional Development Centre provides short courses that are designed to provide high-level training and updating for researchers and managers in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, for professionals in allied organisations and for staff of research and academic institutions. They draw on the expertise of faculty from a range of the University's science and medical departments.
Complementary expertise is provided by speakers from industry and other universities.
All of the courses highlighted above can be arranged, in-house, for companies and other organisations. These can be tailored to meet the specific updating needs of staff, and are held on the company's premises. Fees for in-house courses compare very favourably with those for sending individual delegates to our open courses in Oxford. Recent clients include SmithKline Beecham, AstraZeneca, Zeneca Agrochemicals, Organon, Medicines Control Agency, Astra, Chiroscience and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.
