About this Study Course

Embark on a journey at the intersection of engineering and biology with our Bioengineering Master of Science (M.Sc.) program. Bioengineering transcends traditional boundaries, focusing on the application of biological and biotechnological principles in an industrial context. Unlike natural sciences programs, bioengineering emphasizes process engineering to foster a sustainable, post-fossil economy. Through a blend of engineering, mathematics, and natural sciences, this program equips graduates with the expertise to apply process engineering principles to biological material systems, preparing them to make significant contributions to society.

Overview

As part of the Master’s program, students engage in advanced methodical and fundamental knowledge acquisition, with a primary focus on biotechnological procedures and processes enabling industrial utilization of biological systems. Through specialized courses and hands-on experience, students deepen their understanding of biotechnological material systems, empowering them to tackle real-world challenges. The program culminates in a Master’s thesis, where students showcase their ability to address complex problems independently using scientific methods, alongside an internship providing practical insights into engineering activities.

Admission Requirements

Completed bachelor’s or diploma degree in bioengineering or a related field.
