Program Overview

Pursue scientific questions at the boundaries of knowledge through graduate studies in Biology. We offer both Master’s and Doctoral degrees in diverse areas of Biology, including ecology and evolution, cell and molecular biology, microbiology, and organismal physiology.

Our thesis-based graduate programs include both coursework and research, with an emphasis on the research. Our graduate students and faculty conduct research in a wide variety of locations across Canada and around the world with extensive national and international collaborations.

Our facilities and labs provide world-class infrastructure and research in environmental science, ecology, and cellular and molecular biology through state-of-the-art instrumentation for water quality and stable isotopes analysis, microscopy, proteomics and genomics.

We recommend arranging for a supervisor prior to applying for admission. Suggestions for how to contact potential supervisors are in the graduate section of the Biology department website.
