Academic Qualifications: Applicants must hold an honours bachelor’s degree (minimum Second‑Class Honours, Grade 2.2 or above) in biological or health‑related sciences. That means your GPA must be at least equivalent to a 2.2 (usually around 60–69% or 6.5–7.5 on a 10‑point scale, depending on university conversion). Relevant Backgrounds: Degrees in fields like microbiology, immunology, molecular biology, biotechnology, biomedical sciences, public health or other closely allied health sciences are particularly suited. Prerequisite Subjects: Prior coursework in cell biology, immunology, microbiology, and epidemiology/global health is strongly recommended to keep pace with advanced modules.
