The Master's programme in Biotechnology offers a unique training opportunity at the interface of gene therapy, tissue engineering and biopharmaceutical manufacturing. A variety of top experts in the field will provide forefront insight into all aspects of modern biotechnology. These core lectures will be complemented by several electives, chosen by the student to enable specialization in desired life science areas, and by extensive practical research tailored to be in the vanguard of scientific progress . Within two to three semesters the MSc in Biotechnology will shape leaders in Biotechnology ready to continue cutting-edge research in academia and/or eventually head research and development units in the biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry.
The programme is taught at ETH Zurich’s Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering in Basel.
