Biologie/Biology - From Molecules To Organisms
With our consecutive Master's program "Biology/Biology - From Molecules to Organisms" you will crown your Bachelor's degree. Learn more about our study program here!
If you are passionate about modern and highly publicized science, you have come to the right place. For years, Biology Osnabrück has been at the top of the list and, in addition to numerous projects funded by third parties and the DFG, runs a highly funded Collaborative Research Center that focuses on the physiology and dynamics of cellular micro-compartments. Since 2016, CellNanOs is a state-of-the-art, high-performance research building that uniquely combines interdisciplinary research and microscopy techniques. Thus, we also contribute significantly to the profile line "Integrated Science: From Single Molecule to System" of the University of Osnabrück. Best conditions for your Master's degree!
Leading research from Osnabrück
As a research-strong faculty, you can benefit from the practical and research-relevant study programs with us and choose between three different majors:

Many working groups of our department are thematically embedded in the context of our Collaborative Research Center "Physiology and Dynamics of Cellular Microcompartments" and thus focus on cell and molecular biological topics. With our research building, the Center for Cellular Nanoanalytics (CellNanOs), we have had the best infrastructure and technology on site since 2016 to unlock the secrets of the smallest functional units of the cell, the cellular microcompartments, for example.
You too can benefit from this and can experience and learn state-of-the-art microscopy technology regardless of your focus. The project work in the third semester and your master's thesis in the fourth semester are the ideal opportunity to get a taste of the researcher's air and to advance current and relevant research.
The campus of short distances: Idyllically situated with ideal infrastructure!
The Department of Biology is located at the Westerberg in Osnabrück, a district of Osnabrück that borders the city center and can be reached by bus in 10 minutes. The Westerberg campus is independent of the inner-city campus in terms of infrastructure, has its own cafeteria and library, for example, and is therefore idyllically located in the countryside, adjacent to local recreation areas.The campus of short distances: Idyllically situated with ideal infrastructure!

The Center for Cellular Nanoanalytics (CellNanOs, right in the picture) is located directly behind the biology building (left in the picture). In addition to a state-of-the-art mass spectrometry department, the research building also houses top-notch large-scale microscopic equipment and allows interdisciplinary research at the highest level! Soon we will also be able to call a high-end cryo-electron microscope our own (coming in fall 2020).The campus of short distances: Idyllically situated with ideal infrastructure!
The Studentenwerk (translation: student services) Osnabrück runs several prize-winning refectories, including one directly situated at the Westerberg campus, right next to our faculty. The modern building offers plenty of space in two dining halls for a total of 1000 seats. Here we cook delicious and regional food with a lot of vegetarian and vegan food choices - there is something to find for everyone!The campus of short distances: Idyllically situated with ideal infrastructure!

Become part of the innovative research in Osnabrück! With our highly funded Collaborative Research Center, which deals with microcompartments in the cell, and our research building CellNanOs with its high-end microscopy equipment and mass spectrometry department, we play a leading role. In total, we have about 2 million Euros available for research every year, 13 permanent research groups and numerous junior research groups research and teach here - join us and profit from this infrastructure!
Through the practice-oriented studies you will be prepared for your career start with a wide range of methods. In addition, the seminars of the master modules and the assistant modules ensure that you can develop your presentation and leadership skills: useful soft skills that simplify your start in professional life. In addition, the practical parts of the master modules or the excursion module can be replaced by an industrial internship.
