Postgraduate Programmes
The Department has an extensive programme of graduate degrees consisting of those obtained purely by research: M.Phil. and Ph.D, and three taught MSc programmes: Plant Production and Protection, Tropical Ecosystem Assessment and Management, and most recently, Aquatic Sciences.
Registration for the research degrees may be in Botany, Zoology, Experimental Biology, Environmental Biology or Oceanography, on a part-time or full-time basis. M.Phil students have a time frame of 2 to 3 years while Ph.D. candidates are required to submit within 5 years of initial registration.
Candidates across the three MSc. programmes are registered part time as the programmes are geared to facilitate working professionals who desire academic improvement or practical, hands on application of the desk operation of their employment. Students registered in these should normally take two academic years to complete the degree requirements.
