The Master of Pest Management (MPM), offered by SFU's Department of Biological Sciences, is a thesis-based graduate programme combining intensive research training with applied skill development in pest management.

Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree from a recognised university, secure a faculty supervisor's commitment before admission, and demonstrate evidence of their ability to undertake advanced study.
