This Master’s Degree in Scientific Research explains the main steps of conducting an investigation using the scientific method: make an observation, ask a question, form a hypothesis or testable explanation, make a prediction, test the prediction, and use the results to form new hypotheses or predictions. The program is delivered through distance learning and includes specialized training connected to the student’s chosen concentration within life and earth sciences.
The program uses a structure of 70% textbooks and 30% project. It requires 36 to 54 academic credits above a bachelor’s program, with a duration that ranges from 9 to 12 months. The credit composition includes research methodology and a final project or thesis, plus Scientific Research online, with courses delivered as distance learning continuing education options.
