Overview

The Master of Science (MSc) in Applied Bioscience trains students as researchers at the interface between chemistry and biology, through coursework combined with a research thesis. Students choose one of four interdisciplinary fields: Biomolecular Science, Ecosystem Health, Forensic Bioscience, or Human Health Biology, and work under a faculty research supervisor on an original thesis project. The program is delivered in-class at Ontario Tech University and takes approximately 24 months to complete on a full-time basis, with September, January or May start dates.
