    Life Science & Technology (MSc) Master Discover the world at Leiden University Specialisations Life Science and Education (MSc) Life Science and Science Communication and Society (MSc) Life Science Research and Development (MSc) Life Science and Business Studies (MSc) Increased molecular knowledge of the mechanisms of processes in the cell can lead to better medicines or new methods for combating diseases. Our MSc students in Life Science and Technology (LST) specifically learn to understand the molecular and structural chemical and biological aspects of disease-related processes and to apply chemical and biotechnological tools to the treatment of diseases. The programme offers four specialisations and gives students a great deal of freedom in composing their tailored study programme. The molecular insight of our MSc LST students is highly appreciated by research groups in institutes such as LUMC and ErasmusMC as well as in research institutes abroad. 1 Paula van der Meer 2nd year student I am interested in research in cellular biology and biochemistry, especially when focussed on the molecular processes underlying diseases such as cancer. The freedom to choose your courses is what I like most about the MSc Life Science & Technology in Leiden. What does this master’s programme entail? Depending on the choice of specialisation students may spend 30 EC up to 80 EC in research training projects in multidisciplinary research teams within the Leiden Institute of Chemistry (LIC) or in other research laboratories, such as the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) or the Dutch Cancer Institute (NKI). A MSc student in Life Science and Technology takes courses in the field of molecular, biophysical and biomedical sciences.
