About the Program

The international master's programme MSc Molecular and Cellular Biosciences aims at providing a broad theoretical and methodological understanding of cellular functions at the molecular level, enabling students to acquire a comprehensive knowledge in one or more areas of molecular and cellular biology. The programme aims to deepen the ability to work systematically and scientifically and to train logical-analytical thinking. Students acquire the skills to carry out scientific research work in the molecular biosciences largely independently. The international character of scientific research, which is dominated by the English language, is taken into account by conducting the degree programme in English. The programme structure includes compulsory modules (45 CP), elective modules with three project modules (45 CP), and a Master's thesis (30 CP).
