Biology
Westlake University’s Biology department is a pioneering, supportive, and innovative community of scholar practitioners focused on building excellence between the biological sciences and related branches of physical science, medicine, engineering, and material sciences.

Physiology and Biophysics
Dalhousie University's Doctor of Philosophy in Physiology and Biophysics programme offers you the opportunity to expand your options. Gain the skills you need to become a strong independent researcher or university professor.

Cancer Biology and Clinical Oncology
Jointly offered by the School of Medicine and the School of Sciences, the Cancer Biology and Clinical Oncology course from European University Cyprus (EUC) trains candidates to become independent scholars and researchers in biomedical sciences, contributing to progress in the prevention, detection and treatment of cancer.

Biology
Students entering the Biology programme from Maynooth University will be under the supervision of an experienced researcher. All academic staff members in the Biology Department are experienced and active researchers and can supervise PhD students.

Chemical and Biological Engineering
KAUST ranked #1 in the Times Higher Education Arab University Rankings 2023. The Chemical and Biological Engineering program offered at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is home to world-class professors conducting cutting-edge research on the forefronts of polymers, catalysis, and nanotechnology technology development.

Life Sciences (Integrated)
Environmental factors influence our health and wellbeing, as well as affect ecosystems and wildlife. An intimate understanding of such factors – chemical substances, for example, or changes in radiation or temperature – is urgently needed to better understand disease trends in humans and adverse effects on wildlife. Life Sciences (Integrated) is offered at Brunel University of London.

Biology
