Programme Outline

At the beginning of the first year all students must enroll in the compulsory course Molecular Biology of the Cell. Further elective and compulsory coursework and research training largely depend on the individual preferences and the choice for one of the above mentioned specialisations (See the information pages per track for more information on courses).

Furthermore, students can change the scope of their Master's programme by choosing a society-oriented profile in communication or education, or one that has a focus on entrepreneurship.
