Master of Science Chemistry Concentration in Biomolecular Science

About this programme

These programs prepare candidates for a variety of careers in teaching and research both within and outside of academia. Graduate students are actively involved in research, course work, and scientific communication. Thus, they acquire autonomy in conducting research and in preparing publications. The programs create a stimulating and challenging environment which will allow students to achieve excellence in research. Graduates of the programs must demonstrate research skills and credibility as professionals in their area of research. Established in 1981, the Ottawa-Carleton Chemistry Institute (OCCI) combines the research strengths of the University of Ottawa and Carleton University. The institute offers graduate programs leading to the master’s (MSc) and doctoral (PhD) degrees in Chemistry. Research facilities are shared between the two campuses. Students have access to the professors, courses and facilities at both universities; however, they must enroll at the “home university” of the thesis supervisor. The Institute is a participating unit in the collaborative program in chemical and environmental toxicology at the master’s and doctoral levels.
