学习
在微生物学和微生物生物技术硕士课程中，您将了解微生物作为生命和环境处理器的全球意义。您将获得在食品或药品行业或其他生物技术应用中开发新创新的潜力和工具。
您将了解微生物和生物技术应用以及用于研究病毒、细菌和其他微生物的研究技术。你的研究包括微生物知识的应用、生物技术和生物信息学、微生物细胞和群落的功能原理、微生物学研究方法和解决微生物问题等主题。您可以根据自己的兴趣通过选修科目修改硕士学位课程。
The scope of the Master's Programme in Microbiology and Microbial Biotechnology is 120 credits (ECTS), to be completed in two academic years.
At least half of the study credits (60 of 120 credits) will be courses in microbiology and microbial biotechnology. By selecting electives and other study opportunities, you will be able to shape the study programme based on your interest towards many subject areas, such as the environment, food, viruses, fungi, health and microbial diseases, microbial biotechnology or microbial bioinformatics.
The key contents of the studies in microbiology and microbial biotechnology are:
- Research methods in microbiology, biotechnology and bioinformatics
- Application of microbiological knowledge
- Solving microbiological problems
- Critical, research-based scientific thinking
- Planning, implementation and reporting of microbiological and biotechnological research
- Functional principles of microbial cells and communities
- Development from research to product
- Leadership, entrepreneurship and patenting
- 其他学习，你可以根据自己的兴趣调整学位
- Discovery of novel findings in the field of biology
Courses and teaching
There is intensive interaction between teachers and students in the Master’s Programme in Microbiology and Microbial Biotechnology. A variety of learning methods are used in the courses, including:
- Laboratory work, seminars, lectures
- Oral presentations
- Written reports (individual, paired, group)
- Independent reading
- Work practice, instruction in research groups, project courses
- Oral group exams, written exams, home essays
The language of instruction is mainly English. You can write exams and your thesis in Finnish, Swedish or English.
Master's thesis
The Master’s thesis is an integral part of your degree and accounts for 30 credits. The thesis is generally based on an experimental research project, which you can perform under the supervision of an experienced researcher.
During the thesis process, you train yourself in scientific thinking, identifying problems, constructing hypotheses, collecting material, working in the laboratory, analysing results and presenting the results logically, as well as putting your results into the context of current scientific views. You will write your thesis in the format of a scientific publication in which you critically discuss your results from the perspective of the relevant scientific field.
