 Msc Study Track in Biochemistry

 

General

The program in the biochemistry track is intended for students studying for a master's degree in one of the departments of the Faculty of Life Sciences.

 

All the required courses in the track will be given in English.

 

 

Study program

 

The study program involves 30 semester hours of required and elective courses, carrying out research work, submitting a thesis and passing a final examination.  

 

1. Required faculty courses - 10 s/h

Safety in the Laboratory course (during the first year of studies) – no credit

Research Group Seminar – 2 s/h

Departmental seminar for MSc students – each student will participate in the seminar given by the Department in which he/she performs his/her research – 2 s/h each year

 

One of the courses:

 

 

2. Required track courses:

 

Students must take 8 s/h from the following list of courses:

 

No. Course s/h
0421.4129 Advanced Molecular Biology - not given in 2019/20 3 s/h
0421.3380 Methods in Structural Biology B - not given on 2019/20 3 s/h

Basket of elective courses
(from among the Graduate School courses and third-year undergraduate courses)

 

To make up the total hours for the degree (30 semester hours), courses can be taken from the third year (undergraduate degree, up to 25% of the total credit points), from other tracks in the Graduate School, or from other faculties in fields related to life sciences (medicine, exact sciences). For courses that are not related to life sciences, maximum credit of 4 s/h will be given.

Students who plan to work with lab animals as part of their MSc research must take the course "Principles of using lab animals in biomedical research", given by the medicine faculty (2 s/h).

 

Study achievements

Continuation from year 1 to year 2 is dependent on the student achieving a passing grade in
all required subjects, and a weighted grade of 75 or above.
