Degree Designation

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY(ANATOMY AND STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY)

Additional advantages of the programme

Graduate students in M.Sc. and Ph.D. programmes can select their research topics from a wide variety of ongoing research both in the Department of Anatomy and in the Center of Excellence. Most doctoral students will get scholarships and / or research assistantships. In addition, most will have a chance to go abroad as part of his / her research and work at a renowed university for at least 7 months to 1 year. Market demand for graduates from our programmes is high in both government and private universities. Graduates will be trained to be professional in both teaching and research skills.
