About this program
Do you want to know how climate change affects biodiversity? Or how to improve the diagnosis and treatment of diseases? Are you fascinated by evolution, the human brain, plant genetics, and ecology? Then Radboud is what you are looking for.
Discover biology from every angle over three years in an international classroom. You will focus on how you can put your gained theoretical knowledge into practice. There is lots of room for personal preference. You will learn about all sorts of subjects, from animals, plants and climate change to the chemical structures of DNA and RNA and everything in between.
The first part of the programme provides you with a solid foundation to build on. You can then specialise and design your own profile, and choose courses from domains within both biology and medical biology.
