Master's Programme in Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology, 120 ECTS

The Master’s program in Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology is aimed at students with bachelor degree in chemistry or biology and who have a desire to study how the nervous system functions in molecular terms. The goal of the program is to provide the student with a sound multidisciplinary background in neurochemistry, molecular neurobiology, peptide chemistry and molecular biology. Neurochemistry research helps us to better understand molecular mechanisms behind neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

The program consists of one compulsory course and at least three specialized courses which can be chosen among five courses, one or two courses free of choice and a Degree Project which is conducted in a research group at the Department of Neurochemistry. The program provides a good platform for further studies e.g. graduate studies, as well as for a professional carrier both nationally and internationally.
