The Master programme in cell biology for medical technical personnel educates students that are able to work independently within the field of cell and molecular biology at a high level. The programme is primarily a further education for Bioengineers.

Course Objectives
This programme offers students a solid foundation in order to evolve and specialise within their field. The development of more sophisticated methods of analysis means that we today are able to assess the biological reactions and systems much better than just a few years ago, and the study provides expertise on the latest available methods within cell and molecular biology.
