Master of Science in Drug Sciences

Doctorate: The Master in Drug Sciences qualifies for a doctorate at the Graduate School of Natural Sciences. In some cases the acceptance is associated with additional requirements. At the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences the graduates are eligible for a doctorate in pharmaceutical sciences or toxicology without additional requirements. Transfaculty doctorates are possible in the fields of epidemiology, history of the sciences, medical-biological research and pharmacology. The doctoral studies last three to four years. After the acceptance of the dissertation an oral examination covering the postgraduate studies in the doctoral subject has to be passed.

European Registered Toxicologist: Additional elective courses offered as part of the MSc Drug Sciences provide the theoretical basis for subsequent registration as a professional toxicologist.
