Researches in biology within the ABCT department are manifested into wide ranging areas from molecular through cellular to organism level, with the aim to tackle some of the most important and challenging issues in biology today.
This programme aims to provide rigorous training to students who aspire to become researchers or scholars capable of conducting independent and original research, and producing research findings that are relevant and significant to their chosen field of specialization. The objectives of the programme of study are to equip students with the knowledge, skills and abilities to perform a piece of investigative work of substance with rigour and wit.
Numerous opportunities for research studies leading to Master of Philosophy (MPhil) degree is available. Under our outcome-based framework, research students pursue a series of compulsory and elective subjects in depth, with a view to contributing to the existing body of knowledge, as well as a research project under the supervision of an experienced academic staff member with similar research interests.
MPhil students must satisfactorily investigate or evaluate a chosen area, demonstrate an understanding of the context and significance of the work, display sustained independent effort and original thought and present a clear, complete thesis of a quality worthy of publication.
The MPhil degree is awarded to students who, on completion of an approved programme of study and research, present theses that embody the results of their research and satisfy the examiners in an oral examination in matters relevant to the subject of the thesis. Students must also complete the coursework requirement before submitting their theses. The subjects are chosen by the student, with advice from the supervisor, from a wide range on offer.
