The Department of Integrative Biology is comprised of faculty members in three overlapping fields of emphasis: Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Comparative Physiology. Research is focused on a wide variety of organisms (from microbes to plants to animals) at multiple levels of organization (from molecules and cells through to entire ecosystems). Basic research is being used as a foundation to address some of the most important regional and global issues.
The PhD program requires the successful completion of a qualifying exam and the completion and defense of a research-based thesis. All graduate students are guaranteed financial support through Research and/ or Teaching Assistantships and internal/ external scholarships. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
MSc applicants require an honours bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in a related area, including: integrative biology, wild life biology, ecology, evolution, marine and freshwater biology, biochemistry, cell biology, and molecular biology & genetics. Students with advanced academic and research aptitudes can apply for transfer into the PhD program after partial completion of the MSc degree requirements. |
