Field of Study:
$24,610 /Yr
Molecular Biology and Biotechnology are internationally-oriented research and business areas that profit from a strong multidisciplinary know-how on genetics, microbiology, molecular cell biology, structural biology, biochemistry, and systems biology.
During the Molecular Biology and Biotechnology programme from?University of Groningen, you will acquire in-depth knowledge and skills via upper level theoretical and practical training. You will become highly competent in the fields of Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, and Biotechnology, with excellent perspectives for an independent career in an academic, medical or industrial research environment, or as a scientific consultant for the public or private sector.
The programme is organized by the Groningen Biomolecular Sciences and Biotechnology Institute (GBB) and teaching is, thus, closely related to the research performed at this Institute. Research is fundamental and curiosity-driven and contains?specializations in the following areas:
- Molecular Genetics and Molecular Microbiology
- Molecular Cell Biology of Complex Biological Processes
- Molecular?and Computational?Systems Biology
- Membrane Proteins
- Structure-function Relationships of Proteins
- Microbial Biotechnology and Biocatalysis
- Chemical and Synthetic Biology
Job prospects
Biomolecular scientists, graduates of the Master's degree programme in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, can pursue a career in:
- PhD in the areas of Biomolecular Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Life Sciences, Biochemistry and Bio(nano-)technology
- R&D position in Life Sciences, Medical, Pharmaceutical and Food Industry
- Scientific Advisor in a company

Likes
- I mostly liked the campus very much and labs also very high-tech. I wish that during master's research project there should be a compulsory activity to publish a part of research or even review article with the help of university and supervisor.
Course Curriculum
- Course is well designed to get most of the hands-on experience on major tools and techniques. Lot of practical work was involved in labs.
Fees
- 27,500 GBP/Year
