Taster day Applied Biology on Thursday, 24 April
Study successfully: Applied Biology
If you find such questions exciting and want to investigate the answers yourself in the lab later on, then our Applied Biology degree programme is the right choice for you. We deal with molecular and human biology, microbiology, biochemistry, immunology or genetic engineering; in our laboratories you will learn in small groups the methods and techniques that you will later need to work as a biologist, for example in research or the development of new drugs. Research is international - and so is our study programme. We teach in English and a semester abroad at one of our partner universities is part of the programme for many of our students.
Would you like to get a taste of our study programme? You can! Our Applied Biology taster day will take place on Thursday, 24 April 2025. As later in our internships, you will work on and analyse a scientific question on your own. You can take part in a lecture, find out about the programme and our partner universities, and talk to students and our professors.
