Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Life Science"

As a graduate you will be prepared for a career in basic research within or outside the university context. A large variety of career possibilities open up in industry and the world of science.

Typical work areas include:

  • Biotechnological or industrial research and productionBasic research and applied research
  • Quality control and patent offices
  • Project management and marketing
  • Environmental agencies or consulting companies
  • Environmental protection

Master’s graduates who want to work in research and development will continue studying for a doctorate. Above-average students can take the Fast Track option with direct admission to doctoral studies, thus shortening the overall study period. You can take up doctoral studies in either chemistry or biology.

Particularly talented doctoral students can apply for admission to our Graduate School Chemical Biology. Here you can pursue doctoral studies in an interdisciplinary environment.

Международный обмен по программе обучения "Life Science"

A period of study abroad is always highly recommended. The university promotes study abroad via Erasmus+ and numerous other exchange programmes.

Стажировки и практика в программе обучения "Life Science"

You have to complete an internship of at least 2 months during the master's programme.

Учебный план программы обучения "Life Science"

The standard period of study for the master's programme is four semesters. The first two semesters you attend modules, followed by several weeks of exam preparation and six to nine months for writing your master's thesis. In the master's thesis you independently work on a larger scientific project. After you have completed the thesis, you will present your findings in an colloquium, open to the department, and defend them in an expert discussion. To successfully complete the master's programme, you need to acquire 60 ECTS credits in the modules. Additionally, you have to complete an internship of two months (10 ECTS credits) You can work with e.g. private or public institutions in Germany or abroad. This internship is a great help for your career planning. You can acquire a total of 120 ECTS credits in the master's programme. One ECTS credits corresponds to 25 - 30 working hours. You can individually select your specialisation area with an equal proportion of biological and chemical subjects, or with a focus on the biological or chemical area. You cannot focus only on chemical or only on biological subjects.

The modules in biology consist of advanced level courses, held as six-week all-day compact courses (15 ECTS credits each). In addition to the lectures and seminars, you will carry out an extensive practical research project in a research laboratory and present and defend your findings in a final seminar. In the chemistry modules you can select advanced courses worth either 6 or 12 ECTS credits. In the 6-credit courses you usually study theoretical aspects in lectures, seminars and exercises. The 12-credit courses also include extensive practical project work in research groups, similar to the advanced level courses in biology.
