Study Genome Based Systems Biology at Bielefeld University, a Bachelor degree offered on the Bielefeld campus in Germany. This Full Time program is delivered on campus in English and German and takes approximately 2 years to complete. Students benefit from a structured learning experience designed to build both theoretical knowledge and practical experience. The next intake is scheduled for October 1, 2026.

About Genome Based Systems Biology

Systems biology comprises a lot of disciplines. In this field, biology joins forces with disciplines such as bioinformatics, mathematics and physics. TheÂ common target is to understand the functionality of cells, organs and even complete organisms.Â This broadly based Master's programme gives access to research projects in biotechnology, medicine, agriculture, pharmacy, astrobiology, among many others. With a Master's degree in "Genome Based Systems Biology", you can work onÂ biotechnological projects,Â study diseases or investigateÂ alternative forms of energy. You will be well prepared for a career in science or in economics. With up to 18 students per academic year, this research oriented interdisciplinary Master's course enables intensive supervision and sufficient time to learn the use of complex instruments,Â evaluate and analyse complex dataÂ and build models. One aim of systems biology is to establish computer-based models of life processes, allowing to predict the performance of metabolic pathways, cells, organs or whole organisms under certain conditions. This is of major interest for biology, biotechnology and biomedicine. The increasing use of high-throughput methods in the fields of modern omics technologies, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomicsÂ and metabolomics, results in massive and complex data. In genomics, gene sequences are identified and annotated to reconstruct metabolic pathways. In transcriptomics, functional genes are analysed to unravel regulatory processes. Subsequently, proteomics helps to identify the respective cellular and extracellular proteins. Finally, metabolomics allows the determination of the majority of metabolites in a cell. Systems biology comprises these methods in order to model the interaction of genes, transcripts, proteins and metabolites in a cell. Students acquire theÂ profound knowledge in biology, mathematicsÂ and bioinformatics needed to understand biological processes, handle the produced data and apply or build mathematical or biological models. As Bielefeld University is famous for its "hands on" culture, students learn how to operate complex measuring instruments and machines.Â
