- Description/content
- Biochemistry is a two-year full-time international Master’s programme that focuses on the molecular foundations of biological processes as well as the manipulation of biological pathways and biomolecules for technological applications. The programme is organised into two tracks – Chemical Biology and Technical Biochemistry – which cover a wide variety of topic areas including biocatalysis, natural product chemistry, molecular cell biology, genome engineering, and bioanalytics.
The coursework consists of five mandatory classroom and laboratory modules, a mandatory research internship, multiple elective courses, and a final experimental Master's thesis. Graduates earn the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Biochemistry.
