MA/MS in Biomedical Sciences

This master explores demanding medical questions. Students deepen their knowledge of how biological systems interact with materials, working on tissue engineering and biofabrication as well as advanced pharmacological and infectious disease topics. Participants join a research project on current biomedical issues, which encourages independent, application-focused work. Examples of development work include stent coatings, cartilage replacement and artificial heart valves. The programme is aimed at graduates in biomedicine, life sciences, chemistry or pharmacy. The master thesis can be completed in industry or at research institutions in Germany or abroad. Study can start in the summer or winter semester. The course is offered by Reutlingen University, a public university of applied sciences in Baden-Württemberg. Prospective students should consult the faculty website for the current study and examination regulations, the module plan and the individual application steps before they apply. Questions about content, admission or organisation can be raised with the study advisory service of the respective faculty.
