11 Biochemistry Degree Programs in Germany

Do you have a bachelor’s degree in applied chemistry or a related field, such as biochemistry, and are you looking to advance your skills? This English-taught master’s program emphasizes chemical and analytical methods in pharmaceutical research and development. Over four semesters, you will gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience in analyzing pharmacologically active substances and biomolecules.

Biochemistry is the study of molecules and chemical processes in living organisms, while Cell Biology is concerned with the structure and physiology of cells, their components, and interactions with the environment. The two fields are combined in one comprehensive degree program, which will give you a broad understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that form the basis of life, including the principles of inheritance and gene expression. This allows BCCB graduates to address in their careers important problems in today's society, be it by basic or by applied research, for example in the areas of biomedicine, biotechnology, or molecular biology. For this, the BCCB program at Constructor University provides not only the theoretical background, but also substantial practical training. Students are, furthermore, involved in hands-on research during their studies.

Do you hold a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, pharmacy, or a related field? Are you interested in working at the intersection of chemistry and engineering, with a passion for technology and process optimization? If that is the case, the English-taught master’s program in Biochemical Engineering (M.Eng.) is the perfect choice for you.

Analytical science is becoming increasingly significant. Fast and precise analytical methods are more important than ever in research, quality control, and production monitoring. It is therefore all the more astonishing that so few study programs in Europe offer this as a major. At Hochschule Fresenius in Idstein, you can study Bioanalytical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis (M.Sc.) full-time or part-time.

The global pharmaceutical industry requires well-trained scientists who have the education and ambition to drive innovative drug development. The Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology (MCCB) program places the student at the forefront of those efforts by providing a fundamental understanding of the drug-body interaction from the molecular to the physiological level. By engaging this broader approach, that is, not only trying to cure disease (medicinal chemistry) but also placing an emphasis on the underlying associated cellular pathways (chemical biology), further innovative opportunities for treating disease will come forward. In this regard the MCCB program is unique within the German academic landscape and should help bridge the evolving needs of the high growth pharmaceutical industry.

Bioanalytical Chemistry & Pharmaceutical Analysis graduate looking to deepen your knowledge and specialize in modern analytical methods for medicine, pharmaceuticals, environmental studies, or forensics? Would you also like to improve your specialist knowledge of English? Are you aiming to launch your career in the not-too-distant future? Then our one-year, English-language Master’s study program in Bioanalytical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis is the perfect choice!

The master's program "FOKUS Life Sciences" is a very comprehensive, interdisciplinary and fast track preparation for performing a Ph.D. project at the Graduate School of Life Sciences (GSLS), University of Würzburg. The program features the leading Life Sciences expertise at the University of Würzburg under the auspices of the Faculty of Biology. It also includes the other natural science Faculties of Physics as well as Chemistry & Pharmacy. Relevant research groups at the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Psychology are also included. The program is designed to be a fast track program that leads to a Ph.D. project within the Graduate School of Life Sciences and comprises all of the above-mentioned faculties. Available research topics for the master's program as well as for the subsequent Ph.D. are clustered in the sections of Biomedicine, Integrative Biology, Infection and Immunity, and Neuroscience, comprising more than 300 research groups.

This 2-year program offers a research-oriented education in one of Germany's top universities for biomedical research. Selected top students will be offered a "fast-track" option to start a Ph.D. thesis after 3 semesters of MSc studies. You can choose between two specializations: 1. Molecular Life Sciences; 2. Molecular Oncology.
