Biology

A New Understanding of Life

Over the last few decades biology has developed its natural history approach into that of an experimental discipline which demands not only an insight into the structures and processes of life but also the skills to deploy research-specific methods and equipment.

Educational objective:

Today the study of biology ranges over an enormously wide area of expertise. Following solid basic training in the Bachelor’s degree programme, students may progress to a specialisation in a Master’s degree programme and familiarise themselves with working and research methods. Here the emphasis is experimental laboratory work, which increasingly determines working methods in both education and career.

Career profile:

Employment opportunities for Master’s degree holders include positions in university research and secondary school teaching, and applied work in medicine, pharmacy, agricultural sciences, environmental protection and other areas. Biologists thus in practice collaborate with an interdisciplinary array of specialists.
