MA/MS in Plant Sciences

The research-oriented Master's programme in Plant Sciences is taught in English at a modern research location. It covers core areas of plant biology, including molecular biology, cell biology, systematics and interactions between plants and other species. Students build on a previous biology or related bachelor's degree. The curriculum is modular and allows considerable freedom in choosing subjects and organising courses. The first semester includes compulsory laboratory and bioinformatics courses and lets students add further fields of study. The programme aims at a classical research education, with a final master's thesis completed within the four semesters.
