Dominik D.: Master's Degree in Biotechnology and Subsequent Doctorate

After completing my Bachelor's degree at the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences, I decided to pursue a Master's degree in Biotechnology at FH Aachen.
During my Bachelor's degree programme, I found the many practical trainings, manageable course sizes and close contact with the teaching staff very convincing, which made it very easy for me to choose to continue my studies at a university of applied sciences.
FH Aachen was particularly convincing because of the more varied range of exams. In addition to classic written examinations, examinations were also offered in the form of lectures, assignments (e.g. writing a review) and project planning. This way, it was not only the contents of the respective courses that were tested, but you could also develop soft skills that are important for your future profession.
In addition, FH Aachen also scored points for its proximity to industry. In lecture series in the field of medical and industrial biotechnology, various research institutions and companies regularly present their research areas. Through these lecture units, you can make contact with companies right from the start and in some cases already secure places for a practical semester and/or the Master's thesis.
In summary, I can recommend studying at FH Aachen to everyone. Here, everyone can find and develop their own strengths in a friendly atmosphere. Personally, I liked it so much that I added three more years after my Master's degree and am currently doing a doctorate here.

"For us, progress comes from inspiration and curiosity! We are an innovative company and, therefore, always on the lookout for creative minds.
Direct contact with students is important to us. Thanks to our good relations with FH Aachen, we take the opportunity to give students of the Master's degree programme theoretical and practical insight into our products and technologies and to awaken precisely this curiosity and inspiration that decisively shapes their later path."

Florian G.: Master Biotechnology

Studying at FH Aachen has made a huge difference to my career. In addition to imparting theoretical knowledge, the main focus was on expanding practical skills and learning how to work and learn independently. Moreover, having many different elective courses to choose from in the Master's degree programme made it possible to specialise in the topics that were interesting and important to oneself. I consider the small group size in most courses to be another strength of FH Aachen. As a student, you are not just one among many, but always have a contact person, regardless of whether it is about course-related issues or networking.

Nina Mußmann, Manager R&D Product Development Automatic Dish Washing at Henkel AG & Co. KGaA

"I consider the education at FH Aachen to be good because it prepares students for working life well and in a practical way, especially in the field of natural sciences through many practical trainings. I was able to experience this myself several years ago and have since seen it confirmed many times by Bachelor's or Master's students who are both theoretically and practically fit and who have written very good final theses at Henkel. Both sides benefit from this and it can also lead to more permanent cooperation or employment, respectively, at Henkel."

Mandy G.: Master Biotechnology

I really enjoyed studying Biotechnology at FH Aachen. The proximity of the professors to the students was one of the most relevant points for me. Through the exciting lecture series in red biotechnology, as well as the writing of various reviews, current topics were intensively addressed while independent acquisition of knowledge was encouraged. The combination of working on papers, giving lectures as well as the laboratory practical trainings gave me the confidence to have a good start into my professional life. Thank you for the practice-oriented and sound education.

"Curiosity, passion and competence - that is the breeding ground for our research. After all, at Aurigon we aim to be more than just a good CRO."

"In order to live up to this standard, Aurigon relies on close cooperation with universities and attaches great importance to an intensive transfer of knowledge. That is why we seek close contact to the next generation of young scientists at FH Aachen. To students of biology, chemistry, biotechnology, biochemistry, pharmacy, bioinformatics ... to young people who want to take on the challenges of the Life Science industry and develop their skills. Working closely with universities and the academic world in a targeted manner, we see the potential to keep breaking new, bold ground in research as well."
