Master of Science
About
To improve your employment possibilities or to seek additional research, deepen your knowledge and abilities through advanced research. Compared to a PhD, a Master of Science degree enables you to work independently on a particular scientific topic for a shorter amount of time. Any of the main research topics and areas of strength at the school could be the subject of your study. It is anticipated that your work will show your ability to conduct independent research and make a substantial contribution to the knowledge and comprehension of your chosen topic of study.
