Requirements

Academic Admission

Applicants are required to have a Bachelor's degree or an equivalent qualification. We will check your qualification for our degree course in a selection process. You should provide proof of specialised and methodological knowledge of mathematics, molecular biology or physics. Your suitability will be assessed, based on the content of your present (or prior) study programme. Your study results are of major importance, however, in case there is any doubt concerning your qualification, you will be invited to a personal interview. If the applicant does not have a Bachelor's qualification that is clearly equivalent to the Bachelor of Integrated Life Sciences or if the mark of the BSc is 2.6 or worse, the applicant must pass the admission test. If required, the admission test will take place as soon as possible after the candidate's formal application. The test consists of an oral examination of about 30 minutes. (An online interview is possible upon request.) The test shall determine if the applicant will be able to reach the goals of the study course independently and responsibly on a scientific base. It will test for the basic required knowledge in Biology, Mathematics, and Physics. The test will be held by the admissions committee of the ILS programme. The examination date will be announced at least one week prior to the test. The applicant must pay for any expenses that may arise. The applicant will be graded on a "pass" or "fail" basis. The admissions committee can impose additional requirements for the admittance. You can repeat the test one time within a year. A second repetition is not possible.

APS Certificate

An APS certificate is required for applicants who have completed their qualifying education in India, China, or Vietnam.
