Related fields in the discipline are life science, health science and medicine. Studies in life sciences encompasses all fields of science that involve the scientific study of living organisms such as plants, animals, and human beings. Medicine and biology are the major fields of study the area. As such, life sciences are closely linked with health science, which is a multidisciplinary field based on the natural science such as biology, chemistry and physics.
Biomedical Engineering is a technical discipline that connects areas of technology, biology and medicine . It focuses on research and development for health care and clinical practices.
The main objective of this two-year full-time graduate Master’s program is to prepare students for the challenges in Biosciences of the 21st century. The students should be able to think on „omics“ levels and have to be able to understand and apply the respective new technologies.
Walden’s Master of Science in Clinical Research Administration program can prepare you for key roles managing and monitoring life-changing clinical research phases and processes. This program focuses on the latest technologies, the safest methods for testing, the protection of human subjects, and the hope that drives all medical advancements.
Master of Science program in Reproductive Biology aims at providing the theoretical background as well as practical skills in reproductive medicine and assisted reproduction technologies. The program includes courses on the development of male and female reproductive cells, embryo development, handling of reproductive cells and embryo at laboratory conditions. It also discusses the medical problems of the patients applying to "Assisted Reproductive Technologies Centers" and approaches to such problems. Graduates of the program will have the necessary background and skills to be employed in "Assisted Reproductive Technologies Centers" and "Andrology Laboratories".
This unique programme gives you the skills needed to look across borders and learn from practices in public health and healthcare elsewhere.
The master programme will focus on molecular mechanisms causing diseases, the use and applications of new technologies in genomics/epigenetics/proteomics as well as as well as development of prognostic, diagnostic and therapeutic tools.
It is a program that combines chemistry, physics and biology and focuses on molecules and their properties. Majors in:biological chemistry; physical chemistry; and biomedical research.
This course aims to provide a thorough understanding and practical experience of molecular biology as it applies to infectious agents, particularly those that cause global health problems and problems in developing countries. It covers the application of molecular biology to studying all aspects of the agents, including their taxonomy, diagnosis, epidemiology and chemotherapy. It aims to equip students with the specialised knowledge and skills necessary for a research career or, increasingly, commercial or management careers that demand knowledge of molecular biology.
The Master's Programme in Toxicology gives students an in-depth knowledge of the broad and interdisciplinary toxicological field. The programme prepares students for either a research or professional career, and provides a solid platform for doctoral studies in toxicology or work in risk/safety assessment-related areas in the public sector or industry.
This programme offers in-depth knowledge about Life Science and Technology, which finds applications in innovative health care, in the pharmaceutical industry and in biotechnology.
This innovative Master's degree allows you to study in both the British and French higher education systems at postgraduate level, leading to the award of a joint degree.
You need specialized skills to stay at the forefront of the dynamic changes in the healthcare field. Walden’s Master of Healthcare Administration (M.H.A.) program is designed to help provide you with these targeted skills and develop expertise in healthcare management.
