Descrição do Programa

Understanding living organisms and their relationship to the environment is crucial to creating sustainable solutions for the future and conserving natural resources. The Master of Biosciences at Nord University educates scientists to have a fundamental understanding of the importance of sustainability and advanced knowledge of their chosen area of specialization.

Students can choose from specializations within aquaculture, genomics, livestock science, marine ecology, and terrestrial ecology. A master's in Biosciences from Nord University provides a competitive edge in the job market and our graduates can choose to work in a wide range of industries and fields.

A Master's in Biosciences provides you with in-depth knowledge within a chosen biological field, but will also improve your critical thinking and analytical skills. During the project phase of the program, you will be a part of a local scientific research group, conducting an original piece of scientific research. Master students can investigate marine, terrestrial, and anthropogenic environments, gaining proficiency in the use of analytical tools in areas such as statistics and genomics.

This flexible study program provides advanced knowledge in biosciences with specializations available in the following five fields: aquaculture, genomics, marine ecology, terrestrial ecology, and livestock science. A Master of Biosciences will give you a competitive edge in the job market, and ability to choose a range of potential career paths.

Master of Biosciences has five specializations:
