Program details
Overview
This program leads to a Ph.D. in life sciences, delivered on campus at the Moncton campus through the Faculte des sciences, and trains high-caliber researchers in life-science fields related to the environment and health. The 98-credit curriculum opens with life-sciences seminars in the first year, a predoctoral exam normally taken in the second year, and a doctoral thesis that may be written in traditional form or as a series of scientific articles. Research projects must fall within ecology, evolution and the environment, or molecular and cellular biology and physiology. Admission requires a master's degree in science (or equivalent) in biology, chemistry, biochemistry, or a related field, functional knowledge of English, and sponsorship by a professor qualified to supervise doctoral research, confirmed by a supervision letter submitted with the application; an interview may also be required. Students must be enrolled full-time for at least four sessions. Minimum duration is three years full-time, with a maximum of seven years from first enrollment to complete the thesis.

Admission Requirements: Admission requires satisfying the university's general conditions for third-cycle studies (University Regulation 22.2).
