Welcome
We are a diverse science department dedicated to research and academic excellence. Our department is one of the top destinations in Canada for research in a wide array of biological disciplines spanning plant sciences, biochemistry, proteomics, cell and molecular biology, animal physiology, limnology, evolution, ecology and behaviour.
We have 33 full-time faculty, 11 of whom hold research chairs. With more than 120 graduate students, about $5 million per year in research funding, and a dynamic undergraduate thesis and field course program, we are one of the premier destinations for post-secondary biology education in Canada.
Thanks to David Lougheed for technical help in mounting this web site.
