Department of Natural Sciences
Biomedical Sciences (MSc)
The specialization in Biomedical Research provides students with comprehensive scientific and methodological expertise, preparing them for doctoral studies as well as advanced careers in research and development.
The specialization in Regulatory Affairs & Clinical Development equips students for key roles throughout the entire innovation process — from the development of novel therapies to their regulatory implementation within the pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotechnology industries, as well as in governmental and regulatory agencies.
Both specializations are closely interconnected, enabling students to effectively translate scientific discoveries into practical applications.
