M.Sc. Molecular Medicine
Introduction
M.Sc. Molecular Medicine is a 2 years Masters program taught at Friedrich-Schiller-University, Jena, Germany. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time and part-time options. To successfully obtain M.Sc. Molecular Medicine from Friedrich-Schiller-University you are required to complete 120 credit hours. After completion of M.Sc. Molecular Medicine you will be able to further continue for advance studies or start career as Teacher, Clinical Researcher, Laboratory Technician, Medical Researcher, Biomedical Researcher, Research Technician, Pharmacist.
The Master of Science in Molecular Medicine primarily focuses on biomedical issues and examines those using methods and experimental approaches from the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, and physiology. The skills acquired in this programme can be used in biomedical research and medical biotechnology. This degree programme meets the quickly growing need in the field of molecular and biomedical research for scholars with basic knowledge of medicine and natural science.
Extensive laboratory experiments, the goal of which is to teach students modern experimental methods, are a major part of this degree programme. In addition, students work at two or three different institutions and thus familiarize themselves with a variety of research methods currently in use. This part of the programme also trains the students' ability to apply the methods about which they have read in the course literature independently.
