Beschreibung des Programms

You are fascinated by molecular biological research in the plant sciences? You are interested in learning in an international study group? You would like to work on current research projects and immediately apply what you have learned? Do you like to work independently and be goal-oriented? Then welcome to the MoPS!

What should you bring with you?

Before starting the MoPS, you should already have acquired basic knowledge in molecular biology and/ or biochemistry and have gained experience in laboratory work, e.g. in the context of a Bachelor’s program in molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, or biology with a molecular biology focus. Furthermore, you should have a good command of English, as your daily learning routine will be characterized by English-language lectures, discussions, literature, and your own presentations in English. Details can be found under "Admission requirements".

What does the MoPS offer?

The MoPS offers practice-oriented learning through group practicals in the first semester to refresh your knowledge of basic molecular biology techniques and to learn more advanced lab methods. This is followed by individual lab rotations in the second and third semesters. Here, skills relevant to academic research, such as the development of research questions, experimental design, implementation, and evaluation, are taught, as well as the presentation and discussion of research results. The program is completed with a Master´s thesis allowing me to work independently on an up-to-date scientific question embedded in the research environment of Universität Hamburg. The practical education is complemented by lectures and seminars that provide an overview of the most exciting topics and trends in molecular plant biology, and offer the opportunity to discuss ethical issues and possible career paths following the Master’s degree.
