Molecular Biosciences (Joint Degree)
A degree in Molecular Biosciences prepares you for a meaningful and innovative career. Your expertise will contribute to groundbreaking discoveries, finding cures for diseases that have plagued humanity. You'll be at the forefront of innovative solutions that change the world for the better.
A BSc with Honours in Molecular Biosciences at HAN and University of Dundee (UoD) guides you through current research topics in life sciences. You explore a range of chemistry and biology topics. Like molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, biochemistry and biotechnology.
At HAN (years 1 and 2), you get loads of practice in a life science oriented lab. There you work on group projects. Delve into the latest issues in the field. Boost your problem-solving skills. Become a better communicator.
At UoD (years 3 and 4), you will dive deeper into the theory of drug development, gene regulation and immunology (to name a few). You will also develop entrepreneurial skills and you cap it off with a valuable professional experience in an internship.
The Joint Degree Molecular Biosciences is geared to industry needs, both in the Netherlands and the UK. Naturally, working in an international environment is key in this program. You get the skills employers are looking for: Lab skills. Research skills. Communication skills. Entrepreneurial skills.
- Pažymių išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs mokyklos, būtina prisegti pažymių išrašą. Smulkesnę informaciją kaip pildyti išrašą ir kada jis reikalingas, rasi čia.
- Brandos atestatas – jei jau esi baigęs mokyklą, išrašo nereikia, užtenka anketoje prisegti savo Brandos atestatą.
Pastaba!
- Motyvacinis laiškas yra NEprivalomas dokumentas stojant į šio universiteto programas.
- Interviu - visi stojantys į bakalauro programas privalo sudalyvauti stojimo procedūroje, kurios metu bus vykdomas interviu. Šio interviu tikslas - išsiaiškinti ar pasirinkta programa atitinka tavo poreikius ir lūkesčius.
Anglų kalbos žinias gali patvirtinti vienu iš šių būdų:
- turėti anglų kalbos pažymį Brandos atestate ir išlaikyti Anglų kalbos valstybinį egzaminą (egzamino rezultatas nėra svarbus, svarbiausia, kad jį išlaikytum)*
arba
- išlaikyti IELTS arba TOEFL testą.
*Jeigu nori pasitikrinti ar tavo anglų kalbos žinios yra pakankamos studijuoti Nyderlandų aukštosiose – suteikiame galimybę laikyti Oxford anglų kalbos testą. Nors anglų kalbos testas nėra reikalaujamas, patartina žinoti savo galimybes ir kalbos lygį.
To study Molecular Biosciences, you need to have prior knowledge in a few areas. So your secondary school certificate needs to show good grades in:
- Chemistry
- Mathematics
- Biology (recommended)
With a BSc in Molecular Biosciences with Honours you can find jobs in the private and public sector. At research institutes, hospitals and health agencies. Or at life sciences companies, like biotech and pharmaceutical firms. The kind of work? Researching diseases. Designing new drugs. Working as a product or marketing specialist. Or focusing on quality assurance. Here are some molecular bioscience jobs you could pursue:
- Research Assistant. As a research assistant, you work in fundamental or applied research. Your job? To provide support in the lab to more senior researchers. Where? At a university or in the commercial sector. You can grow into positions of more responsibility and leadership if you choose the commercial sector. Want to progress in the academic world? Then you would pursue a master or PhD first.
- Assay Development Scientist. Assay development is a procedure in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Basically, it’s testing how an organism or organic sample reacts to a drug or biochemical. The aim? To identify and characterize potential new drug molecules. As an assay development scientist, you work with a team of scientists in a lab.
- Technical Sales Specialist. As a technical sales specialist you build relationships with clients. How? Through cold-calling, visiting clients, going to network events. The market for technical products and services is global. So you’ll be working in an internationally oriented environment.
- Junior Project Leader. In this position you run short to medium-length projects. Your tasks? To communicate with the lab technicians. Contribute innovative ideas. Communicate with management. About anything from quality assurance to financial issues. Where? At a pharmaceutical, biotech or other life science company.
