mSc bioMaster of Science in BiologyThe Master of Science in Biology (M.Sc. Bio) is a research-oriented degree that aims to prepare students for teaching and research, and for work in industry and government agencies that require expertise in the field of biology.

m bioMaster of BiologyThe Master of Biology (M. Bio) program is designed to answer the professional needs of tertiary level biology teachers for upgrading, updating, and retooling. This is a non-thesis, straight coursework program that allows a student to finish the degree within one year and two summers, or within four summers.

m bi edMaster in Biology EducationThe Master in Biology Education (M. Bi Ed) is specifically designed for science teachers of primary and secondary schools. It does not only emphasize content, but also incorporates teaching strategies. The program seeks to address issues on learning and teaching; and current trends in biology education.
