A research program in marine biology will focus on the scientific study of marine life, including all organisms in the sea ranging from microscopic plankton to large fish.

This environmental science program studies the physical, chemical, and biological processes that take place on Earth, as well as the social, political, and cultural processes that impact the planet.

Academic research for this program must provide a comprehensive study of ecology and environmental science.

In this research programme, the student explores the methodology of Second Language Teaching (SLT) and supports it with many examples. It presents new directions for the English Language Teaching (ELT) program, describing innovative pedagogical methods and consistent ideas that lead to success in this field. The curriculum should cover all key issues for effective ELT practice.

Throughout the ages, humans have wondered about the connection between nutrition, human health and performance. A research programme in scientific nutrition confirms that health and well-being depend on eating a diet that provides all the vital chemical nutrients to maintain biochemical harmony in the body. Every disease, symptom, discharge and pain indicates a chemical imbalance in the body. The realities of nutrition are based on the type and amount of nutrients in each food that are needed to carry out the chemical reactions necessary to sustain a healthy life.

Natural medicine believes that healing will prevail when the conditions for health exist. When traditional water therapies, herbs, physical medicine and nutrition are used properly, the body's self-healing is facilitated. This research programme should investigate the mental, emotional and spiritual connections to various disease states and how they are overcome. In addition to innovating the use of several natural medicines, students should develop an important perspective of the life force and its role in the healing process when used in conjunction with the principles of natural health science.

Yoga is one of the oldest forms of healing. However, so far it has not been applied meaningfully to promote health. The goal of Yoga Therapy is to maximize the restoration of health and well-being of the mind, body and spirit by using a person's own amazing ability to heal. Through this research programme, the candidate should confirm that yoga is a therapy that helps heal ailments using its deep wisdom and traditional principles.
