They will play a part in tackling problems to which medicine cannot currently provide adequate solutions, and will have the chance to improve the quality of life of people all over the world.

New Treatment methods

Medical and pharmaceutical biotechnology is by its nature an extremely interdisciplinary field, with the natural sciences, biomedicine and technology playing an especially important role. Biotechnology has developed into a key technology for the future by providing not only innovative new active substances and diagnostic methods but also developing biological systems for the production of therapeutic molecules or antibodies for cancer treatments. Our degree combines theory with extensive lab work; covering areas such as working with Cell Cultures, Fermentation and Bioseparation.

Your training also includes practical work as part of research and industry projects.

A particularly attractive option is the dual degree we offer in conjunction with the Turku University of Applied Sciences in Finland.
