Postgraduate Training
Taught Programmes
The department currently has three M.Sc. Programmes offered as part-time programmes. Entry level to either of the MSc degree programmes is a BSc degree in the Life Sciences. Individual courses may be taken by students registered in Specially Admitted or Occasional programs of the University. Applications for transfer to a PhD programme from successful completion of M.Sc. are encouraged where candidates achieve a distinction overall in the course examinations, practical components and, specifically, the Research Project.
As all M.Sc. courses are geared towards part-time students, classes are held two evenings per week and labs usually run on Saturdays.
