Excerpt

Masters (MSc) degrees usually involve a 1-year programme, partly in the form of a teaching course, the rest occupied by the performance of an independent research project. MSc degrees can be concerned with more specialised aspects of the first degree subjects (e.g. Restoration Ecology, Aquatic Resource Management, Fisheries, Aquaculture), or they can allow career shifts by providing conversion courses into other areas (e.g. Forensic Science, Oceanography, Information Technology).
