About this program
Combine chemistry, biology and medical sciences in a challenging programme. Unravel the workings of healthy and diseased cells and gain fundamental knowledge necessary for medical innovation. Launch your career at the forefront of international biomedical research.
In the Molecular Life Sciences programme, you learn about important molecular processes from a biomedical and biological perspective, in which cells work together to form a multicellular organism (human, animal or plant).
Of course, you will also need to study the relevant mathematical and physical concepts needed to understand molecular processes. That's why especially in the first year, you will follow challenging courses in physics and mathematics. Moreover, you will be studying the differences between healthy and diseased cells. You will get acquainted with these topics during lectures and seminars and perform hands-on experiments in the lab.
