Studies in molecular biology focus on the biochemical processes that compose the molecular machinery of life. The pathway that flows from DNA transcription to RNA translation to protein synthesis is one key area of study.

A Master of Science is a graduate degree that can be obtained by students who have first completed a bachelor’s program in a similar field. An MSc typically takes about two years of full-time study to earn.

Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
