Microbiology - Master's Programme

Orientation and Goals

International Master’s programme Microbiology

The Master’s programme Microbiology is taught in English. Aim of the study programme is to educate motivated students to become highly qualified microbiologists, ready to work independently in a broad field of academic and applied sciences.

Based at the Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM), the programme is research-oriented, with a focus on marine and environmental microbiology.

Programme content

By offering a balanced mix of theory and practice, students are trained in classical cultivation-based approaches of microbial physiology as well as in state-of-the-art methods such as (meta-)genomics, proteomics and microbial community analyses.

Graduation and prospects

Our goal is to guide students stepwise through the Master’s programme, in order to successfully finish their own individual research projects for the master´s thesis. By the broad knowledge gain and methodological skills, the students will be well prepared for a career in modern microbiology.
