      Hi, yes! I highly recommend you do an MSc. Especially if you want to work as a scientist. Also having an MSc is an advantage cos of all the practical skills you learn vs just a bachelor's degree. I suggest you look around different universities and see what they offer for their MSc programs and you can also check out a video I made on how to apply for postgraduate studies. I hope that helps 😊
