Overview
About this Degree
Biology is involved in solving many problems of the present and future. Biologists are much in demand. In many areas, their scientific expertise is indispensable when it comes to finding cutting-edge solutions, e.g. for the conservation of our natural environment and biodiversity, sustainable use of all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, development of new materials, biomedicine and biotechnology, national and international nature conservation and blue sciences. As a graduate of the Industrial and Environmental Biology Master's programme from Hochschule Bremen, you will have the prerequisites to take on specialist and management tasks in many of these fields – a profession with a future!
