Molecular Life Sciences (MML) / MSc

Introduction

The MSc-programme Molecular Life Sciences aims at further developing and deepening the knowledge and skills of BSc-graduates from various interdisciplinary fields of chemistry, physics, mathematics and biology. Students are offered five specializations: Biomedical Research, Biological Chemistry, Physical Biology, Physical Chemistry and Environmental Chemistry. The specializations of this programme aim at acquiring positions as a researcher, expert or manager in chemical, physical, biological or medical fields. In each specialization, there is a special track to prepare for becoming a chemistry teacher in Dutch secondary schools (eerstegraadsleraar scheikunde; only for selected BSc's).

Learning Outcomes

After successful completion of this MSc-programme graduates are expected to:
- have specialized knowledge and skills in one or more of the fields related to the molecular life sciences;
- be able to write a research protocol aimed at solving complex problems in the field of molecular life sciences, and adequately execute this protocol under the supervision of an experienced investigator;
- be able to contribute as an expert, manager or relatively independent investigator to interdisciplinary research projects in one or more areas of the molecular life sciences.
