Infection Biology & Immunology

["During their studies for the Master’s degree programme, students will consolidate their knowledge of biomedical laboratory methods used in infection biology, immunology, modern OMICs technologies as well as the theory and practice of clinical research. To this end, students first attend core modules that convey the fundamental principles of infection biology and immunology, basic knowledge of OMICs technologies, data science as well as key competences. Based on the core modules, students can make an individual selection of compulsory elective advanced modules. The range of advanced modules should provide an appropriate scope of content to enable students to specialise in the various subject disciplines of infection biology and immunology linked to biomedical or clinical practice and realise their own interests. By attending these courses, students acquire methodological knowledge and competences and can transfer principles of infection biology, immunology and biomedicine to specific problems.The research practical introduces students to current research topics in preparation for independent scientific work and, during the work placement, students gain insights into possible areas of future work and job profiles. The Master’s programme in "Infection Biology and Immunology" is completed by passing the Master’s dissertation module."]
