The international bachelor's degree in quantitative
Biology is a new course that prepares you specifically for a job in
modern biological and medical research, offered jointly by the
Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf and the
University of Cologne.
The Bachelor's degree in Quantitative Biology offers a range of
subjects geared to the needs of modern bioscientific research: a
course of study in biology, closely interlinked with mathematical
modelling, data analysis and bioinformatics.
Course content In
contrast to traditional biology courses, the modules in the basic
phase do not differentiate between botany, zoology, microbiology,
etc. Instead, you work out the basic principles of biology, some
of which lead to similar, some to very different solutions in
different organisms. The course imparts in-depth knowledge of
biology, including mastery of important experimental,
mathematical, statistical and IT methods. The integrative modules
impart the necessary quantitative skills in biological contexts.
Lessons are held in English.
Almost all modules contain internships or exercises in order to
internalize the lecture content in an application-oriented manner.
The main goal of the course is to enable you to combine
biological and quantitative-analytical thinking in order to optimally
prepare you for modern research.

In the first 5 semesters, interdisciplinary modules impart an prepare you well for research and development work in life
understanding of biological mechanisms, phenomena and science and healthcare, whether in industry or at public
concepts, combined with the relevant physical and chemical research institutions and universities. The degree qualifies you
fundamentals. In addition to basic experimental techniques, for a variety of master's programs at HHU: Biology, Molecular
special emphasis is placed on mathematical modelling, Biomedicine, Translational Neuroscience, Industrial Pharmacy
biostatistics and bioinformatics. and Artificial Intelligence & Data Science. With quantBio+ you
can do a doctorate in suitable graduate programs.
The 4-year variant (quantBio+), to which you can switch in the
4th semester, gives you more freedom when planning a stay
abroad and offers space for intensive research experience in
academia or industry.
