Biology is a full-time multidisciplinary programme that provides intensive study in biological sciences. The programme equips students with broad training in biology while providing enough flexibility to specialise in particular sub-disciplines. This major prepares students for careers in education, allied health professions and interdisciplinary fields such as the environment or biotechnology, law, science, journalism, bioscience management, etc. The curriculum and degree are interdisciplinary in nature and provide a broad approach to biology for students.
A major in biology allows students to explore various aspects of our natural world. Students may pursue careers in biotechnology, medicine, environmental studies, human and veterinary medicine, scientific research and development, environmental monitoring and regulation, and private design and consulting.
Students must undergo a pre-graduation internship and defend a graduation thesis in order to receive a degree. Upon successfully completing the programme, graduates pursue careers in educational institutions, research centres, scientific research institutes and other areas of specialisation, or continue their graduate studies through masters and Ph.D. level.
