Overview
In the Molecular Life Sciences programme, you learn about important molecular processes from a biomedical and biological perspective, in which cells work together to form a multicellular organism (human, animal or plant). Of course, you will also need to study the relevant mathematical and physical concepts needed to understand molecular processes.
That's why especially in the first year, you will follow challenging courses in physics and mathematics. Moreover, you will be studying the differences between healthy and diseased cells. You will get acquainted with these topics during lectures and seminars and perform hands-on experiments in the lab.
Future career opportunities
Molecular Life Sciences graduates from Radboud University end up in a wide range of jobs. Ten years after starting their careers those who do not have PhDs mainly work as managers in a technological environment. Graduates with PhDs often become specialists with managerial roles. They continue with research in research departments at Radboud University or at other universities at home or abroad.
Accreditation
This programme is accredited by the NVAO (the Dutch-Flemish accreditation organisation).

The Bachelor's programme of Molecular Life Sciences takes three years and prepares you for a two-year Master’s programme in Molecular Sciences or Medical Biology. The molecular foundation is laid in the first year, after which you can enhance your knowledge of the biomedical side. After a year and a half you are free to choose your own subjects.
In the first year of the Bachelor's Molecular Life Sciences you study biological and chemical processes from a molecular perspective, following a combination of molecular courses and (medical) biological courses. You will also folllow courses in physics and mathematics. In the second and year, you will have a specialisation phase and compose your won programme.
Courses include:
- Structure of Atoms and Molecules
- Biochemistry
- Mathematics
- Cell Biophysics
- Electricity and Magnetism
- Molecular Sciences Lab
