Biotechnology MSc

Biotechnology sits at the heart of solutions to global health, food security and climate challenges. This master’s gives you the theoretical foundations and practical lab skills to innovate across pharma, healthcare, industrial and environmental settings.

You’ll learn to design experiments, analyse complex datasets, and turn discoveries into viable products, all while developing the professional skills employers expect from future‑ready scientists.

You’ll develop skills in:

* Advanced laboratory techniques (GLP, aseptic technique, flow cytometry, microscopy, mass photometry, NMR).

* Genetic engineering (e.g., CRISPR concepts), recombinant protein expression & purification.

* Bioprocess design and scale‑up (microbial and eukaryotic systems).

* Bioanalytical methods and bioinformatics.

* Research communication, teamwork and project leadership.

How you will learn\
