Master in Toxicology

About

The research-oriented Master's degree programme in Toxicology conveys comprehensive knowledge about toxicants including their impact on living organisms. You will gain a profound understanding in general toxicology including pharmacology, physiology and pathophysiology, organ toxicology, pathological anatomy as well as histopathology. Furthermore, you will develop a methodological toolkit that enables you to explore and analyse these phenomena. Thereby the knowledge about chemistry, biochemistry, and medicine is deepened. Additionally your practical competences will be extended in analytical chemistry, in vitro toxicology and in vivo toxicology (e.g. experimental animal models in toxicology). Since working as a toxicologist also implicates a juridical dimension, you will gain substantial knowledge in national and international legislative and regulatory processes.
