45 Master's degrees in Biology in Netherlands

Marine Sciences programme at Utrecht University will enable you to gain a broad understanding of marine systems, but also specialise in the physical, chemical, biological, and geological processes taking place in the ocean.

The Master’s programme in Bio Inspired Innovation at Utrecht University is aimed at students with a Bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences, who have a keen interest in combining design, research and systems-thinking. 

Do you have a clear and specific interest in cancer, stem cells or developmental biology? Join the Cancer, Stem Cells and Developmental Biology programme at Utrecht University and combine research in oncology, molecular developmental biology and genetics.

In the Earth, Life and Climate programme at Utrecht University, you will explore the fundamental processes which regulate the past, present, and future dynamics of sedimentary systems, biodiversity, and climate, as well as their evolution. 

On the Master's Environmental Biology programme at Utrecht University you will have the chance to study the functioning of plants, animals and micro-organisms in their environment, and how they react to changes in that environment.

Combine fundamental human biology with clinical studies. Bridge the gap between biomedical research results and clinical practice. Get the chance to work together with scientists from highly regarded research groups.

Join the Freshwater and Marine Biology (Biological Sciences) programme from University of Amsterdam. The track offers a unique study programme with attention for both freshwater and marine ecosystems and for scientific disciplines relevant to aquatic ecosystems.

Are you interested in unravelling this by using machine learning, sequence analysis, computational models and/or systematic experiments? This interdisciplinary Bioinformatics and Systems Biology programme from University of Amsterdam combines biology, data science and systems thinking, preparing you to make a real impact in life sciences research.

The Biobased Sciences programme at the Wageningen University and Research focuses on the transition from a petrochemical to a biobased and circular economy. 

The Biological Sciences programme from University of Amsterdam is a challenging master's programme with world-renowned research on ecosystems and their organisms. You will investigate the biodiversity, the functioning and interactions of organisms with each other and the environment, and/or the consequences of anthropogenic changes such as climate change and eutrophication. 

Do you want to understand living systems? Help preserve biodiversity, our environment or human and animal health? Then the master's Biology at Wageningen University and Research is the right fit for you.

In the Neurobiology (Biomedical Sciences) programme from the University of Amsterdam, you study the brain at the intersection of neuroscience, medicine and the life sciences. Choose one of four specialised tracks and develop the knowledge and research skills to investigate the healthy and diseased brain.

The Biosystems Engineering programme at the Wageningen University and Research focuses on the development of technology for the production, processing and storage of food and agricultural non-food, management of the rural area, renewable resources and agro-industrial production chains.

The Chemistry of Life (Chemistry) programme at University of Amsterdam will focus on aspects of chemistry related to living systems, such as the role of enzymes in organic chemistry, biomolecular simulations, and biotechnological approaches in industry.

Would you like to specialise in organismal stress adaptation? Or in ecosystem dynamics, so that you can contribute to species protection and nature recovery? You could also dive into environmental modelling or walk the line between biological and medical (micro)biology. Choose a specialisation to define your field of interest within Biology.

Are you going to bridge the gap between early biomedical research results and clinical practice? Or would you rather study DNA, RNA and/or proteins in the laboratory? In this Medical Biology programme at Radboud University you will work to get a deep understanding of the mechanisms acting in human in health and disease at the molecular, cellular and system levels.

Would you like to understand the brain from a multidisciplinary point of view? In this Neurobiology course at Radboud University, you'll study the brain across spatial scales, from molecule to whole human brains. Learn about the organisation and functioning of the brain.

The General Biology (Biological Sciences) programme from the University of Amsterdam is designed for students who do not wish to restrict their focus to one subject in the field of biology. Your study may cover topics such as the molecular mechanisms of a virus or the population dynamics of African elephants.

Are you interested in research on the behaviour of primates and other animals? Or work on the origins of Homo sapiens? With the Evolution of Behaviour and Mind (Biological Sciences) programme from University of Amsterdam, learn more about the origins of behaviour and the mind from the integrative perspective of biology, psychology, anthropology, and other sciences.

The Green Life Sciences (Biological Sciences) programme from the University of Amsterdam is a research-oriented programme that focuses on the interaction of plants with their abiotic and biotic environment. You will study fundamental and applied aspects of molecular biology, cell biology, chemical ecology, physiology, biotechnology, plant breeding, phytopathology and the plant microbiome.
