Bioanalytics, M.Sc.
Coburg Bioanalytics (Bachelor and Master) is a cross-sectional science that brings together and bundles methodical knowledge from different subject areas for the purpose of problem solving. In the master’s program, scientists from biology, chemistry and related disciplines teach and research. These scientists from the sub-disciplines of microbiology, biochemistry, clinical analysis, bioinformatics, pharmacy, molecular biology and biotechnology organize joint projects and bring together different perspectives and methods. The course has modern laboratories that enable students to put their theoretical knowledge directly into practice.

How to apply
You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
Applications go through the university's portal or uni-assist. Typical mistakes:
- ×incorrectly made certified copies and translations
- ×a wrong set of documents
- ×the application submitted the wrong way
- ×errors or gaps in the application form
- ×the application submitted at the wrong time — too early or too late
An incomplete or incorrectly prepared application is excluded from the selection — it can no longer be corrected after the deadline.
StudyInFocus does not represent the university and does not influence the admission decision. We do not sell study places and do not guarantee admission — this is a service for preparing and submitting documents on the applicant's side.
If your level is not enough yet
The two most common stoppers are a language level below the requirement and a certificate without direct admission. Both can be solved, but they take months — plan them now, not after a rejection.
