The Department of Biology offers financial support in the form of Research Assistantships and Teaching Assistantships.
The support is normally offered until the student's program time limit is reached. Internal and external scholarships are also available and students are assisted in applying for such funds as they become available. Departmental policy defines a mandatory minimum level of financial support for all students in good standing and within program time limits. The minimum is designed to meet the needs of single students who pay domestic tuition fees and have no exceptional expenses; it is reviewed periodically by the department.
