Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Drug Discovery and Development"

After successful completion, the path is open to direct entry into pharmaceutical research and development or to a doctorate. Possible fields of activity or employers, in addition to the academic sector, would primarily be the research-based pharmaceutical industry, but also small and medium-sized companies in the health sector (biotech companies, contract research institutes) as well as relevant national (e.g. BfArM) or international (e.g. EMA) authorities .

Учебный план программы обучения "Drug Discovery and Development"

The Master's degree in Drug Discovery and Development offers excellent opportunities to qualify for a position in the field of drug research and development, be it in an academic environment or in the pharmaceutical industry.

The core competence of people doing research in the field of pharmaceuticals lies in the area of ​​interaction between chemical (or also biologically manufactured) substances and living matter. It requires a good understanding of both chemical and life science basics and relationships. With the course of study, graduates of all courses of study that cover both areas in terms of content are given the opportunity to deepen this content with a focus on the interaction between animate and inanimate matter. In addition, they open up the entire value chain of the research-based pharmaceutical industry in a research-oriented manner (from the identification of the body's own target structures for drugs to the development of lead chemical substances to clinical testing).

All the specialist disciplines involved here (analysis, biochemistry, biotechnology, chemistry, galenics, management, molecular and clinical pharmacology) are integrated into the curriculum and interlinked. After just a few years of training, the students should be able to distinguish themselves for an activity in this field either directly or after completing a doctorate.

The active ingredient research is therefore essential for the maintenance of health and prosperity, far beyond the narrow focus on pharmaceutical applications, of fundamental importance. The changing, growing and aging society as well as difficult and changing environmental conditions require adaptation or new development of active ingredients. In addition, the requirements placed on them in terms of effectiveness, safety and ecological sustainability are increasing. A large part of the subject complexes require the solution of fundamental scientific and especially medical or pharmaceutical problems.

Within the curriculum, numerous projects are processed that address small to medium-sized problems that are directly related to the challenges mentioned. The Drug Discovery and Development course contributes as a whole to the social commitment of the students.

The master’s course is therefore internationally oriented and is therefore open to foreign applicants. The teaching languages ​​are German and English.

    Faculty of Applied Natural Sciences
    Technische Hochschule Köln

    The faculty of applied natural sciences is located in the CHEMPARK in Leverkusen, which is one of the largest chemical parks in Europe. Global players from the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, such as Bayer and LANXESS, are located there. Thanks to this proximity, our students are immersed in a professional environment right from the beginning and usually gain an insight into the work of these companies through various projects.
