    About

    Students on the Bachelors degree programme gain a solid basic knowledge of biology and chemistry. In the first two semesters, students learn fundamental knowledge, comprising not only general biology and general chemistry but also microbiology, mathematics, physics, English and IT. From the third semester onwards, greater emphasis is placed on the overarching Life Science module comprising bioinformatics, molecular biology and bioprocessing technology as well as the biology and chemistry of natural products. In addition, students take further specialisation modules from the compulsory elective area. They are given considerable freedom to select the course content that suits their individual strengths and interests. Students on this Bachelors degree programme also complete laboratory practicals independently to enhance their capacity for teamwork. The programme concludes with a Bachelors thesis. The aim of the Bachelors degree programme in Life Science is to give students a thorough theoretical background and to teach them the practical skills required to enter the world of work or to pursue a Masters degree programme.

    Career

    Those who graduate with this Bachelors degree should be in a position to assert themselves in the labour market and to develop on the job. Rather than training students to perform a particular type of work, the aim of the programme is to qualify for them for employment in the professional field of life science, making them generally eligible to pursue a profession. Typical fields include the chemical and biotech industry, the pharmaceuticals and plant protection industry, the food industry, agriculture, technical inspection agencies such as TÜV, authorities and associations.
