Department of Human & Clinical Anatomy
PhD in Human & Clinical Anatomy
The Department of Human and Clinical Anatomy serves three major functions: the performance
of current topical anatomical research, the preparation of graduate students for scientific
careers within academia and other related fields, and the teaching of anatomy of the human
body to health professionals in training (medical, nursing, and allied health sciences students,
Postgraduate residents).
The MSc in Biomedical science (Human Anatomy) has been developed to provide postgraduate
training in human anatomy and is intended for students graduating from life science (such as
BSc Anatomy, MD, MBBS) and related disciplines who wish to extend their knowledge of
anatomy and/or who wish to pursue a career in the anatomical sciences. The primary aim of the
programme is to educate and train individuals in human gross anatomy. The programme will
be delivered using a combination of traditional methods and guided self-directed learning in
which students use and develop transferable and subject-specific skills. The programme fulfils
the requirements of a higher degree by ensuring that the students possess autonomy early in their
studies to maximise their interests and develop new skills.
This two-year taught Masters programme provides a solid foundation in human anatomy as a
basis for teaching as well as basic and applied research. It considers all aspects of gross anatomy,
histology and embryology through direct examination and contextualization.

Department of Biochemistry
PhD in Biochemistry
The PhD program in Biochemistry is open to holders of master (MSc) degrees, MD and MBBS
subject to English proficiency tests, as well as other screening procedures. The latter would
include a departmental interview and, in some cases, a qualifying oral examination. The program
is based primarily on research, with the addition of limited coursework where deficiencies are
identified by the Thesis Supervisory Committee (TSC). It includes at least three years of full-time
supervised research and will also include the presentation of a detailed thesis proposal, and at
least two seminars. Research includes genetics of single gene disorders, polygenic disease such as
diabetes mellitus, obesity, inborn errors of metabolism and malaria parasites. Lipid metabolism,
nutrition and antioxidant projects are also offered. Candidates are required to register on a fulltime basis, and pay annual fees, which might be supported from a faculty member’s research
grant or scholarship. In addition to national students, international students are encouraged to
enroll in the programs. At successful completion of the program, PhD students are required to
produce a thesis containing original work of suitable merit that demonstrates their command of
the relevant research methodology and ability to undertake independent research.
