Masters of «Biology» speciality get necessary knowledge from three disciplines cycles: humanitarian and social and economic preparation; mathematical, naturally and scientific preparations; professional and practical preparation. Specialists on biology own necessary knowledge in biological cycle of disciplines, pedagogics and psychology, for different types of educational establishments work. In the process of studies masters held practical preparation during pedagogical practices, get science experience during course papers writing and qualification papers.
During studies a master should master the modern bases of phytocenology, the basic stages of its development in Ukraine and world; principles of the « Ukraine Green book» (2009) creation; the regulation mechanisms of interspecific co-operation of living organisms separate groups on the molecular, organism and geobiocentric levels of their co-operation; conformities of society and nature interrelation; the morphological aspects of development, and also biochemical and molecular-genetic aspects of determination process and cell differentiation; main nature protection problems that arise in the conditions of modern industrial and agricultural production; the influence of environment changes on a man; the quality management of natural environment on the modern scientific and technic achievements base, the method of organization and conducting of nature protection measures.
Master professional preparation of biology is based on the study of biology teaching method at higher school on the last scientific information which provide teaching at the modern development of pedagogical and biological science level; peculiarities of didactics principles realization; methods of capture students’ knowledge and abilities; mastering of high pedagogical culture, to be a professional and humanist.
A general volume of educational program is 60 ECTS credits, humanitarian and social and economic preparation – 22 credits, mathematical, naturally scientific preparations – 9 credits, professional and practical preparation – 27 credits, state attestation – 2 credits.

Long-term development of learning the world when various research approaches change and supplement each other consequently: observation, description and classification, comparative-analytical, historical and experimental methods. Forms of plant discharges and their role in various types of plant formation (phytocoenosis); the mechanism of chemical interaction of plants in coenosis via allelopathic mode as a specific ecological factor of biogenic origin.
Morphological aspects of the development, as well as biochemical and molecular-genetic mechanisms which accompany them in the process of embryonic and post-natal growth. Morphological and structural changes of an embryo. Transformation causes of biological aspects of live organism interaction. Regulation mechanisms of intra-specific interaction of separate groups of live organisms on molecular, organism and geo-bio-coenosic levels of their interaction.
