Program details

Overview

The master in biology gives in-depth scientific training for independent research, building on knowledge of biological processes from molecules and cells to ecosystems. Students learn recent research techniques, analyse complex biological data and build basic programming skills. Students choose advanced biology in either ecology, evolution and conservation biology, or molecular biology and physiology, and take electives and a semester internship. The English-taught route allows a professional internship or advanced courses instead. The award is a master's degree in biology.
