The Master’s program in Biochemistry at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University is an international program for German, European and International students, which is taught entirely in English. It aims at providing a cutting-edge education by combining advanced studies of Biochemistry with corresponding studies in related fields of Chemistry and/or Biology. During the program all students receive a thorough mandatory training in advanced Biochemistry. In addition, they have the option to choose from numerous subjects as complementing major or minor subjects. The underlying idea is that students can develop their own interests and either gain a broader knowledge around biochemistry or focus and specialize in particular fields in depth. An integral and absolutely critical part of the curriculum is to work in laboratories on real research projects either in the context of research internships or the Master thesis.

More programs from the university

You can add a master's degree to your first undergraduate degree (e.g. bachelor's degree or State Examination) if you want to expand or specialize your knowledge.  An increasing number are now in English — from American History to Physics. A master's degree program at LMU usually takes two years and is made up of 120 ECTS points. 

In addition to an undergraduate degree, further qualification requirements may be necessary, which are detailed in the examination regulations for each master's degree.
There are consecutive master's degree programs that build on knowledge from undergraduate studies in the same subject. In other master's degree programs, the requirements can be met with different academic degrees, because they require certain fundamentals that are not restricted to a single subject area. Weiterbildende Master (career-integrated master's degree programs) also require relevant professional experience. Students in these programs are usually required to pay additional tuition fees.
