Course description
Join the shift from an oil-based to a bio-based industry and sustainable energy supply. Discover innovative solutions to secure the global food supply. The English-taught Master's degree program in Biotechnology (MBT) equips you to tackle critical future challenges. This program emphasizes bioeconomics, particularly in environment and nutrition. Designed for three semesters of full-time study, the MBT program awards a Master of Science degree. It is a collaborative effort between Offenburg University of Applied Sciences and the University of Warmia and Mazury (UWM) in Olsztyn, Poland. This unique partnership offers the only internationally cooperative Master's program in biotechnology in Baden-Württemberg, allowing you to earn a double degree from both institutions. UWM in Poland is a traditional university with a strong research focus. Offenburg, being a smaller institution, provides personalized attention from instructors and staff, comprehensive support services, and close ties with local industry and business partners. This combination ensures a well-rounded educational experience, preparing you to contribute effectively to the fields of bioeconomics, environment, and nutrition.
