11 Part time MSc Programs in Biology in Europe for 2024

MSc MARRES - Ocean Science, Conservation & Innovation. In a world that is finally beginning to understand the importance of the Ocean in our lives, it is essential that scientific and socio-economic stakeholders learn to work together. The MSc MARRES was designed in response to the recent evolution of the job market due to the emergence of Blue Growth worldwide. Our interdisciplinary and international master's programs equip students with knowledge, skills, and networks to enter research, conservation, and onsultancy firms, and develop their own innovation opportunities.

Zoos play a crucial role in animal conservation. Whether they’re carrying out important research into animal behaviour, taking part in breeding programs, educating the public or advising policymakers, they are crucial players in international conservation.

Our Microbiology and Infection MSc provides you with sound theoretical and hands-on laboratory experience in cutting-edge microbiology. The course is set within the context of the Institute of Microbiology and Infection at the University of Birmingham, the largest grouping of microbiologists in the UK.

Study the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of aquatic animal diseases in cultured organisms.

Understanding the relationship between brain, cognition and behaviour is one of the biggest challenges the scientific community is currently working on. Computational cognitive neuroscience is a young and exciting discipline that tackles these long-standing research questions by integrating computer modelling with experimental research.

This Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases three-year, part-time, online postgraduate programme leads to the degree of Master of Science in Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (CMID). Aimed at junior doctors currently undergoing, or about to undertake, speciality training in an infection discipline, this programme is open to trainees in the UK and worldwide.

The MSc in Conservation Biology provides you with a knowledge base and practical experience to address issues relating to biodiversity conservation and biodiversity management.

With climate change and environmental damage at record levels, there’s never been a greater need for conservation biologists. This master will give you the vital skills to play your part in one of the key issues of our times.

This Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases three-year, part-time, online postgraduate programme leads to the degree of Master of Science in Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (CMID).

Within conservation science, there is increasing recognition of the value of genetic data to support management decisions. However, scientists and managers with the skills and knowledge to apply population genetic theory to conservation practice are lacking. Within this arena, wildlife forensics is an exciting new field that is attracting increasing global attention in the fight against the illegal wildlife trade.

Our programme offers a small course experience taught by active members of the quantitative genetic research community. We are based in the Institute of Ecology and Evolution, part of the School of Biological Sciences, and for this programme, we bring together expertise from across the University and SRUC.
