Overview
Biological Sciences Program
focuses on the strategies for human resource development, providing future leaders in teaching and conducting research. Our program supports prospective graduate students who will become experts in biological research and have ethical merits. Additionally, we expect our students to contribute in novel findings at the international level, notably in physiology, ecology, taxonomy and systematics, botany, genetics, and molecular cell biology, through high-quality and widely-accepted publications. Our ultimate intention is to improve students’ knowledge transfer skills through teaching demonstrations, scientific publications, and the integration of new knowledge that offers solutions to current global issues (i.e., emerging infectious diseases, food and energy security) and the environmental problems (i.e., biodiversity loss, climate change, global warming) following the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Bio-Circular-Green Economic Model (BCG).
Why this program at Chula
Biological Sciences
is a branch of science studying living organisms via scientific processes starting from molecular, cellular to ecosystem and biome levels based on various aspects, including physiology, ecology, taxonomy and systematics, biodiversity, evolution, botany, genetics, and molecular cell biology. Our goal is to contribute scientific findings that will lead to technology and innovation applicable to agricultural practices, public health, and industry.
