Overview

Specialisation

The Aquatic Biosciences programme of Nord University integrates four areas of specialisation - Aquaculture, Ecology, Genomics, and Animal science, production and welfare - which correspond to the strategic research divisions at the faculty.

As a doctoral candidate at our faculty you are affiliated with one of the strategic research groups. Individual PhD projects may be cross-disciplinary in nature and could encompass both farmed and wild aquatic organisms, as well as the environment they thrive in.

Investigations embracing the different aquatic biospheres may either delve into the molecular mechanisms or stay at the ecosystem scale. While the overarching theme of the PhD in Aquatic Biosciences is aquatic resource utilisation and management.

Programme Structure

Courses include:

Ecological and Interspecies Ethics
Advanced Biological Data Analysis
Aquaculture production and environmental impacts
High throughput sequencing of non-model organisms
Principles in Animal Experimentation
Aquatic Animal Immunology
