Can you add geology as a master's option along with zoology since I am studying both?

It depends. Pursuing separate Master's degrees in both Geology and Zoology at the same time is uncommon, as each field is highly specialized. Most universities do not offer a combined or dual-degree option for these specific subjects.

- Some universities have dual or interdisciplinary programs (for example, Environmental Science with Geology), but direct Geology + Zoology combinations are rare.
- You can consider completing one Master's first, then applying for the second in the other field.
- With your background in Life Science, a Master's in Zoology is a strong fit. For Geology, you may need to meet additional prerequisites.

Program structures and options are subject to change. If you want to explore interdisciplinary or dual-degree options, please discuss your specific interests with your LeapScholar counsellor.
