Admission requirements

Admission requirement for the Master's program in Life Science Engineering (Master of Science) is proof of a first qualifying degree with a diploma or bachelor's degree (180 credits) in engineering or natural sciences from a state-recognized university.

Applicants who have not obtained their educational qualification at a German-speaking institution must also provide proof of sufficient German language skills, for example through a successfully completed recognized test such as TestDaF 4-4-4-4, Goethe Institute C1, Telc GmbH C1, or DSH 2 or an equivalent certificate.

Details

The consecutive Master's degree programme in Life Science Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences South Westphalia at the Iserlohn campus is aimed at employees in the manufacturing Life Science industry who already have initial work experience following a university degree, as well as graduates of natural science bachelor's programmes. The programme was designed in close collaboration with the Life Science industry and its associations to meet the practical requirements, especially in the areas of biotechnology, medical technology, pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics and analytics.

The qualification objectives of the programme particularly reflect those technical requirements that dominate in all GMP-relevant (Good Manufacturing Practice) areas. The three thematic pillars of the programme - Quality Development, Biotechnology, and Engineering - impart applied and in-depth knowledge of essential processes in the Life Science industry.

The study contents include the following modules:

Project Management Advanced Mathematics Life Science Engineering Aseptic Production Instrumental Quality Control Applied Statistics Bioprocess Engineering Medical Device Technologies Good Laboratory Practice Good Solution Practice Signal Processing Applied Cell Biology Good Manufacturing Practice Regulatory Affairs Business Intelligence Corporate Entrepreneurship Process Intensification Master's Thesis Colloquium Project Work for Practical Phase

The part-time Master's degree programme in Life Science Engineering is aimed at both employees in the manufacturing Life Science industry who have gained work experience after an initial professional qualification and want to further develop themselves for a qualified assumption of leadership responsibilities, as well as graduates of natural science bachelor's programmes. The study organisation enables studying while balancing family commitments or during a professional orientation phase.

The study contents are interdisciplinary and provide the tools for a career leap into practical technology in the Life Science industry of your choice. A special feature of the programme is the clear industry focus throughout the entire course. Students have access to a bio-tech practice firm on site. There is also the opportunity to obtain a GMP certificate.
