What we value
Human Biology and Environmental Data Science as specializations
The Bioanalytics degree program provides you with sound biological, analytical and methodological knowledge in the first part of your studies. In the second stage of your studies, you can hone your analytical skills in the field of human biology or environmental data science and thus sharpen your profile. In human biology, you will be able to examine clinical samples such as blood, saliva or tissue for diagnostic purposes and forensic samples for the purpose of identifying the perpetrator and reconstructing the course of the crime. In the Environmental Data Science specialization, you will analyze the impact of anthropogenic substances on ecosystems and model these with the help of modern AI-supported methods. Fully equipped laboratories and PC pool rooms are available for teaching and research work. You will take part in current research, learn in a problem-oriented way and thus be optimally prepared for your career.
