The international Master’s programme in Biology and Sustainability at NTNU is designed for students like you—those who want to dive deep into the biological processes that shape life and use that knowledge to tackle global sustainability challenges.

UIC Barcelona's Master's in Biodigital Architecture is a pioneering program of UIC Barcelona School of Architecture that combines architecture, biology, and new digital trends. Since the year 2000, this program has offered a unique approach to architecture from a biological and digital perspective.

The Master’s programme Molecular and Cellular Life Sciences (MCLS) is research-oriented and takes a multidisciplinary approach to study molecules related to health and disease in cells and organisms. Although thematic research often has a fundamental character, such as the study of protein folding or cellular dynamics

Are you good at handling lots of data? Would you like to learn more programming techniques and apply them to bridge the gap between computer science and life sciences? After this master, you will possess the skills you need to facilitate and initiate innovations for life sciences, such as programming machine learning applications and managing data storage.

The internationally accredited MBA&E Life Science Management Programme equips you with life science management expertise required in leaders of the future combining comprehensive, industry-specific knowledge and management skills. Benefit from this integral program approach recognising the need for leaders with deep understanding of science and management alike. Taught exclusively in English and dedicated to engineers, bio-technologists, natural scientists, business managers, industrial engineers and similar professionals. NEW "AI in Life Sciences" Module

Students may pursue a concentration in the following areas: Cellular and molecular biology, Anatomy and physiology, Genetics, Evolution and ecology. Opportunities for plant and animal research are available in our greenhouse and vivarium facilities. This program is offered through the Department of Biological Sciences in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Natural products are important sustainable sources of bioactive ingredients with a high potential for applications such as pharmaceuticals, dermocosmetics, medical devices and food supplements. Thus, the Master's Degree in Chemistry of Natural Bioactives

Dive into the future of ocean exploration and innovation. This program combines biotechnology, chemistry, and life sciences to equip you with cutting-edge knowledge and hands-on research experience in areas like marine drug discovery, sustainable seafood, carbon capture, and green chemical processes.

The aim of the program is to prepare the professionals that possess the advanced knowledge and skills in both biotechnology and materials science by combining the desing and problem-solving skills of engineering with the ones of biomedical sciences and are capable of using the acquired knowledge while solving practical problems in the biomedically oriented scientific research.

Both global and local environmental problems make studying biological and environmental sciences timely and important. Due to climate change and a decrease in natural resources and biodiversity, there is a growing need for specialists in the field. Studies in our international Master’s Degree Programme in Ecology and Evolutionary Science provide you with the ability to understand different phenomena of life comprehensively, from the interaction between molecules to the functioning of ecosystems.

The master's degree Biological Anthropology is intended to provide holders of degrees in experimental sciences and the humanities with up-to-date training in human biodiversity, its origin, evolution and the biomedical implications. The program responds to the growing demand for specialists in the area of human biology and physical anthropology, contributing knowledge and methodologies pertaining to this area of specialization and related areas (e.g., physiology, genetics, zoology, medicine, archaeology).

The course trains advanced professionals in life sciences through pathways in Molecular and Cellular Biology and Bioinformatics, designed to develop integrated specialized skills. The aim is to train professionals capable of understanding, connecting, and leveraging experimental and computational approaches in complex scientific contexts.

The European Master in Plant Breeding and Innovative Plant Sciences – emPLANT – is a two years Master degree offered by a consortium of five leading European universities in the field of plant breeding, plant biology, seed technology and biotechnology in order to face the challenges of global changes such as population growth and climate change.

The aim of the master's degree in Crops and Plant science is to prepare graduates with a wide cultural background, scientific training with particular reference to the method; and professional preparation in the areas of plant production, and their protection, including ornamental and urban green systems, landscaping and environmental recovery, as well as in the protection of plants from adversity.

Freshwater systems, including lakes, rivers and wetlands, are essential and biologically diverse parts of the landscape. Studying aquatic sciences will give students a broad range of knowledge and skills about freshwater systems, the organisms that live in them, and how the surrounding environment and society influence their functioning.

Molecular biology is the discipline within the life sciences aimed at understanding the molecular basis of life in health and disease. It is a multidisciplinary area of study and deals with the structure and function of molecules as well as their interplay in creating the phenomenon of life. This programme is jointly organised by the University of Antwerp, the KU Leuven and the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (coordinating institution). You can apply for this programme at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
