Introduction

The master’s programme in Molecular Biotechnology has been developed in close cooperation with businesses working within bioscience and the biotechnology sector. This makes it unique and means that you will learn systems biology methods that are in demand both within the employment market and in research. Molecular biotechnology combines fields such as molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, biochemistry and immunology, in order to develop products and services within the pharmaceutical, agricultural and food industries.

The University of Skövde offers a two-year master’s programme in Molecular Biotechnology in which you will use laboratory and computer-based techniques to study and modify genes and proteins. The techniques you will learn can be applied within medicine and the agricultural and food industries, for example, to identify diseases and to genetically modify plants, animals and cells. Within the programme, you will study the structure, function and regulation of genes and proteins. The programme includes advanced research-oriented studies within molecular biology, biotechnology and systems biology. Independent laboratory work and computer-based analysis of experimental biological data are important elements of the included studies. You should therefore enjoy working both in the lab and at a computer.
