The interdisciplinary master's program in Pharmaceutical Sciences builds on the basic skills in natural sciences taught in the bachelor's program and provides a broad grounding in pharmaceutics at a high level and a solid introduction to the different areas of pharmacy: pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmaceutical biology, pharmaceutical technology, bioinformatics, biochemistry, and pharmacology. The elective modules allow students to choose a specialization in one of these areas. The master's program in Pharmaceutical Sciences encourages students to build up an individual scientific profile. Some of the credits may be earned at other faculties of the university, at external research institutes, or abroad. A central goal of the master's program in Pharmaceutical Sciences is to teach the students to conduct independent experimental scientific research. The successful completion of the master's program provides qualifications for positions in pharmaceutical research as well as for a specialization in the pharmaceutical industry.


Disclaimer
The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
