Overview
About this Degree
The Molecular Precision Medicine program at the Medical University of Vienna is dedicated to an understanding of human pathogenesis and the treatment of disease at a molecular and mechanistic level.
The course brings basic, translational, and clinical scientists together with doctors to educate students in the opportunities, challenges, and future perspectives of precision medicine.
Career Opportunities
Graduates of the MSc in Molecular Precision Medicine will be qualified to pursue careers in basic, clinical, or translational biomedical research, either in academia or industry, armed with a deep molecular and mechanistic understanding of human disease.
Graduates will have core competencies in bioinformatics, including programming, data mining and interrogation, and statistical analysis that will allow them to pursue careers in data science.
Graduates will also have a basic knowledge of clinical presentation, the processes of target identification, drug development, manufacture, and clinical testing, and the evaluation of therapeutics that will enable them to bridge the gap between the bench and the clinic.
Finally, graduates will be familiar with the ethical and socio-economic issues associated with the practice of precision medicine in the domain of public health.
