Master§ 1.2 - Aim of Programme, including any professional profile and specialisations
- advanced proficiency in the bioinformatics and biostatistics disciplines related to biology, biomedicine and clinical disciplines.
- in-depth knowledge of research and development work in the interface between biochemistry/molecular biology, biomedicine and informatics, both nationally and internationally
- the necessary prerequisites for undertaking further research-based studies, including a PhD course
- Knowledge: This category is related to the specific programme or the specific course and covers the level of comprehension and reflection within a subject area in relation to the terms, theories, methods and scientific problems of the area.
- Skills: This category is aimed explicitly at the performance of practical skills, professional ethics and responsibility.
- Competences: This category entails the graduate’s personal and independent application of knowledge and skills. These competences are universal, not limited to the individual programme or course. Instead, they include skills such as analysis and abstract thinking, an attitude for learning, the ability to participate in academic and interdisciplinary collaboration, communicative skills and the graduate’s ability to acquire new knowledge and structure his/her own learning.
§ 1.3 - Didactic and pedagogical basis
- In the introductory phase the joint reference frame for theory, models and terms is established through the teacher’s use of varied teaching methods.
- The training phase is utilised by the students to obtain their own experiences and to immerse themselves in the material through active work and dialogue with the teacher.
- The study phase is a learning environment unaffiliated with the teacher and where the student independently acquires academic, personal and social skills in relation to an understanding of and immersion in the subject of science.
