Erfolgskonzept: Theorie + Praxis

Das Studium umfasst 3 Säulen:

1
1. Die Kernbereiche
In den Semestern 1-2
Anstatt sich wie im Bachelor-Studium Medical and Pharmaceutical Biotechnology stark auf das Grundlagenwissen in den Naturwissenschaften zu fokussieren, geht das Master-Studium auf die Methoden- und Problemlösungskompetenz in der medizinischen und pharmazeutischen Biotechnologie ein.
In den ersten beiden Semestern wird das Vorwissen aus dem Bachelor-Studium oder einer entsprechenden Ausbildung vertieft. Module wie Health, Disease and Therapeutical Strategies, Process Design, Bioprocess Technology und Analytical Methods in Life Sciences stehen auf dem Studienplan. Zudem beginnen Sie im 1. Semester mit der Vorbereitung auf Ihr Research Semester.
Außerdem veranstaltet das Institut Biotechnologie einmal im Jahr das Life Science Meeting. Dabei handelt es sich um eine wissenschaftliche Konferenz, die bewusst sehr breit aufgestellt ist. Internationale Konferenzatmosphäre pur: Sie profitieren von international anerkannten Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aus Forschung und Industrie. Auch Studierende und Absolventinnen und Absolventen werden als Speaker integriert.
2
2. Die Spezialisierungen
In den Semestern 1-4
Bereits im 1. Semester haben Sie die Möglichkeit, den Schwerpunkt Ihres Studiums ganz nach Ihren persönlichen Interessen zu gestalten. Die Spezialisierungen Bioprocess Engineering und Advanced Therapeutics Development stehen zur Auswahl.
Sie verschaffen sich unter anderem einen Überblick über die aktuelle Forschungslandschaft: Zahlreiche Forschungsprojekte, die den 2 Spezialisierungen bzw. Forschungsschwerpunkten zugeordnet sind, werden im Rahmen der Spezialisierungen präsentiert.
Nützen Sie die Gelegenheit, um zur Expertin oder zum Experten auf dem Gebiet Ihrer Wahl zu werden: Die gewählte Spezialisierung trägt zur Feinjustierung Ihres beruflichen Profils bei. Im besten Fall entscheiden Sie sich also auch im Forschungssemester für eine Praktikumsstelle und ein Forschungsthema in dem gewählten Gebiet.
3
3. Das Research Semester und die Master-Arbeit
In den Semestern 3-4
Die Forschungsphase ist ein Kernelement des Master-Studiums. Sie können bereits nach dem 2. Semester mit der Forschungsarbeit für die Master-Arbeit beginnen, da die Vorlesungen des 3. und 4. Semesters online stattfinden, und damit bis zu einem Jahr in einem renommierten Biotechnologie-Unternehmen oder einer Forschungseinrichtung im In- oder Ausland verbringen. Beispiele sind das Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in den USA oder die Karolinska Universität in Schweden. Der Schwerpunkt Ihrer Arbeit wird ein Projekt sein, das die Grundlage für Ihre Master-Arbeit bildet.
Nach Ihren Research Semestern müssen Sie nur noch für die Master-Abschlussprüfung an die IMC FH Krems zurückkehren. Wenn Ihnen also Ihre Praktikumsgeberin oder Ihr Praktikumsgeber eine Festanstellung oder eine Doktorandenstelle anbieten, steht Ihnen nichts mehr im Wege.

Spezialisierungen

Setzen Sie Ihre eigenen Schwerpunkte: Im Studium entscheiden Sie sich für 1 von 2 Electives.

Bioprocess Engineering

Diese Spezialisierung bereitet Sie auf die Entwicklung und Produktion von pharmazeutischen Produkten vor.

Diese Produkte werden heutzutage oft biopharmazeutisch, also durch Fermentation in großen Bioreaktoren, hergestellt. Hierbei kommen genetisch modifizierte Mikroorganismen zum Einsatz, die in sehr hohen Zelldichten gezüchtet werden und das gewünschte Produkt herstellen. Die Produktpalette reicht hier von Medikamenten über Nahrungsmittel-Ergänzungsstoffe bis zu Stoffen wie Bioethanol.

Durch die Spezialisierung erwerben Sie vertiefte Kenntnisse über Bioverfahrenstechnik, Prozessautomatisierung und vor allem Fermentation. Dieses Know-how befähigt Sie, in allen biotechnologischen Unternehmen zu arbeiten – sowohl in großen pharmazeutischen Firmen als auch in kleinen Start-ups, die sich auf neuartige Produkte wie Nutraceuticals spezialisiert haben. Ihr Einsatzgebiet reicht von der Entwicklung ganz neuer Substanzen über die Testung derselben bis hin zur Herstellung im großen Maßstab für den Markt.

Unterstützt werden die Bioverfahrenstechnik-Vorlesungen und Übungen durch den Einsatz moderner analytischer Methoden. Hier reicht das Spektrum von einfachen Online-Methoden und deren Auswertung bis zu Proteomics mittels HPLC-MS.

Advanced Therapeutics Development

Diese Spezialisierung beschäftigt sich mit der wissenschaftlichen Erforschung von Wirkstoffen und deren Mechanismen. Dadurch ist sie die perfekte Grundlage für ein weiterführendes PhD-Studium oder für einen Job in der F&E Abteilung in der Biotechnologie-Industrie.

In der medizinischen Biotechnologie gab es in den letzten Jahren bahnbrechende Erfolge. Ein Beispiel: die Immun-Checkpoint-Inhibitoren (PD1) bei der Behandlung von fortgeschrittenen Melanomen. Zurzeit werden siRNA-Moleküle, kleine, eingreifende RNA-Einheiten, auf ihre Wirksamkeit bei der Behandlung von Krebs- und Viruserkrankungen überprüft; Zulassungen sind hier in den nächsten Jahren zu erwarten.

Die Entwicklung neuer Therapien wird zunehmend durch Entwicklungen im Bereich von Hochdurchsatz-Technologien wie „Next Generation Sequencing“ (NGS), Massenspektroskopie und bildgebende Verfahren geprägt. Darum wird es in Zukunft immer mehr notwendig sein, große Datensätze miteinander zu verknüpfen und klinische Ergebnisse aus der Therapie miteinzubeziehen.

Die Module in der Spezialisierung Advanced Therapeutic Development geben hier einen fundierten Bezug. Gestützt wird dies durch ein Spezialisierungslabor, in dem die frühe Phase der Entwicklung eines Therapeutikums nachvollzogen wird. Ein Journalclub zu aktuellen Problemen der Biotechnologie rundet das Programm ab.

Zulassung & Aufnahme – die nächsten Schritte

Sie haben einen Studiengang gefunden, der perfekt zu Ihnen passt? Sehr gut – das Wichtigste ist damit schon geschafft. Informieren Sie sich jetzt über die nächsten Schritte. Wir haben alle relevanten Informationen für Sie zusammengefasst.

Welche Zugangsvoraussetzungen gelten für unsere Master-Studiengänge?

Ein Master-Studium setzt voraus, dass Sie zuvor ein facheinschlägiges Bachelor-Studium oder ein gleichwertiges Studium mit mindestens 6 Semestern und 180 ECTS an einer anerkannten in- oder ausländischen postsekundären Bildungseinrichtung absolviert haben.

Wenn die Facheinschlägigkeit Ihres Grundstudiums nicht eindeutig gegeben ist – wenn also zum Beispiel ein fachfremdes Studium im Vorfeld absolviert wurde –, werden Ihre Qualifikationen nach Einlangen der vollständigen Bewerbungsunterlagen durch die zuständigen Stellen im Detail geprüft.

Informationen über zulässige Vorstudien

Wichtig
Steht Ihnen der Präsenz- beziehungsweise Zivildienst noch bevor? Als männlicher Bewerber mit österreichischer Staatsbürgerschaft empfehlen wir Ihnen dringend, die Wehrpflicht noch vor dem Studium abzuleisten. So können Sie Ihr Studium ohne Unterbrechung durchführen und direkt nach dem Studium in das Berufsleben einsteigen.

Aufnahmegespräch

Bei unseren Master-Studiengängen steht die Person im Mittelpunkt. Deshalb möchten wir Sie im Aufnahmeverfahren gerne persönlich kennenlernen.

Im Rahmen der Online-Bewerbung ist ein Motivationsschreiben zu verfassen. Vorgegebene Fragen zu Ihren Beweggründen finden Sie in der Online-Bewerbung. In Ihren Antworten, die Sie in eigens dafür vorgesehene Eingabefelder eintragen, setzen sich mit den Fragestellungen auseinander und erörtern Ihre Studienmotivation. Für Ihr Aufnahmegespräch werden Ihr Motivationsschreiben und Ihr Lebenslauf als Grundlage herangezogen. Das Aufnahmegespräch ist ein Einzelgespräch, in der Regel mit dem Studiengangsleiter bzw. der Studiengangsleiterin.
Neben dem persönlichen Kennenlernen werden Ihre Beweggründe für das Studium besprochen, sowie Ihr fachlicher Background und Ihre bisher erworbenen Kompetenzen diskutiert. Es wird besonders auf Ihre fachlichen Vorkenntnisse, Ihre Methoden- und Sprachkompetenz und Ihre allgemeine Eignung in Hinsicht auf Ihr angestrebtes Master-Studium geachtet.

Das Aufnahmegespräch findet entweder online über Microsoft Teams oder Vorort statt und wird in der Unterrichtssprache des Studiengangs geführt.

Welche Aufnahmetermine gibt es?

Sie haben in der Regel die Wahl zwischen mehreren Aufnahmetagen, die mit Kontingenten hinterlegt sind. Im Zuge der Online-Bewerbung können Sie Ihren bevorzugten Termin auswählen. Um noch von der vollen Auswahl an Terminen profitieren zu können, empfehlen wir Ihnen, Ihre Bewerbung rechtzeitig durchzuführen.

Verschaffen Sie sich jetzt einen Überblick über die für Sie relevanten Termine:

Im Moment sind keine Termine verfügbar.

Nachdem Sie Ihre Online Bewerbung erfolgreich abgeschlossen haben, wird Ihre Bewerbung auf Vollständigkeit und Richtigkeit geprüft. Sobald dieser Vorgang abgeschlossen ist, informieren wir Sie per E-Mail und bestätigen dabei auch den Aufnahmetermin.

Bewerbung für das nächste Studienjahr möglich ab 01.12.2022

Ende der Bewerbungsfrist für EU StaatsbürgerInnen	15.05.2023
