Overview
Biology is by nature a multifaceted science. Today’s biologists face a growing number of research challenges, such as the link between global change and the ongoing biodiversity crisis, or the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Such topics require integrative approaches, combining elements from different scientific domains. The Master of Science in Biology at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel includes five graduation options. Each of these allows you to specialise in your research field of interest, while a broad range of electives provide the opportunity to maintain and develop a multidisciplinary scope.
- Ecology & Biodiversity
- Molecular & Cellular Life Sciences
- Herpetology
- Human Ecology
- Erasmus Mundus Masters Course in Tropical Biodiversity & Ecosystems
