The MBS is a one-year graduate program focused on coursework, featuring a significant research component. Students undertake this research project with guidance from a Faculty Advisor. Created as an alternative to the MSc, the MBS offers graduate-level education in a condensed timeframe and doesn't demand a comprehensive written thesis. Many MBS candidates are either exploring their interest in thesis-based graduate studies or enhancing their academic profile for professional programs. Those who develop or confirm a passion for research may transition to the MSc program before their third term, pursuing a thesis-based graduate degree instead.

These disciplines encompass diverse research efforts aimed at decoding disease mechanisms at the molecular scale, encompassing investigations into cancer biology, liver disorders, heart conditions, and ion channel pathologies.

Qualification Requirements

Applicants should have an Honours baccalaureate degree in the Biological Sciences or a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree (or the equivalent) with a minimum 'B+' standing in the final two years of study. Letters of reference from two individuals who can adequately evaluate the academic and research capabilities of the applicant must be provided with the application. In addition, a short statement of the applicant's area of interest and career goals is required to assist in the selection of faculty advisors. Students may be admitted into the Fall, Winter, or Summer semester. Provisional acceptance may be granted to students who do not meet this 'B+' standard if there is additional evidence that the applicant is capable of successfully completing the graduate program (e.g., outstanding letters of recommendation, or evidence of prior relevant work or research experience). Transfer to regular status will normally be recommended when the student obtains a minimum grade of ‘A-’ in their first two graduate course and displays current research ability to their advisory committee. These courses will be credited to the degree program. IELTS - Minimum overall score of 6.5 with no band less than 6.
