PhD Programs in Biodiversity
Generally considered a subset of the study of biology, biodiversity focuses on the role genetics plays in the differences between living things. Programs may also study the effects of genetics along with the influences from policies, the environment and conservation efforts.
Canada is a North American country consisting of ten provinces and three territories. Located in the northern part of the continent, it extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean.
The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
