Biomolecular science explores molecular and cellular techniques to study cellular functions, develop novel methods against pathogens and illnesses, create biomaterials and bio-products, advance pharmaceutical research including drug formulation and targeted delivery, examine how drugs interact at molecular levels, and understand immune responses to microorganisms. This research bridges biology and chemistry.
The MSc in Applied Bioscience aims to cultivate skilled researchers operating at the chemistry-biology intersection. The Faculty of Science's non-departmental structure fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, enabling students to thrive in team-based research environments. These graduate programs provide comprehensive scientific training—both hands-on and theoretical—preparing graduates for leadership positions in life sciences. Students achieve these competencies through independent research and demanding coursework. By uniting diverse scientific perspectives among students and faculty, the programs enhance learning opportunities. Aligned with the university's mission, the research focuses on developing innovations to benefit Canadian society.
