Human Biology
Combine fundamental human biology with clinical studies. Bridge the gap between biomedical research results and clinical practice. Get the chance to work together with scientists from highly regarded research groups.

Physics and Astronomy
Would you rather specialise in pure physics or discover the interface between physics & astronomy, mathematics, chemistry or biology? You choose! You can dive into theoretical physics or perform your own experiments with this Physics and Astronomy programme at Radboud University.
Neurobiology (Biomedical Sciences)
The Biomedical Sciences - Neurobiology of the University of Amsterdam is a challenging Master's programme. It is positioned at the interface between biology, psychology and philosophy. Your Master’s diploma qualifies for excellent positions both in- and outside the academia, anywhere in the world.
Biological Sciences - Evolution of Behaviour and Mind
The Biological Sciences - Evolution of Behaviour and Mind program at University of Amsterdam is for those interested in research on the behaviour of primates and other animals or work on the origins of Homo sapiens.
Physics and Astronomy - Biophysics and Biophotonics
The Physics and Astronomy - Biophysics and Biophotonics programme is a joint degree programme of the University of Amsterdam and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. As a student, you will therefore benefit from the expertise, networks and research projects at both universities. UvA and VU jointly issue a degree certificate to graduates.
Biology and Education
The Biology and Education MSc programme at Leiden University prepares you for a career as a teacher in secondary schools. After completion you obtained the qualifications to be a Biology teacher.

Medicinal Chemistry
Study all stages of drug development (discovery, design, development, targeted delivery), including the phases of drug activity relating to a drug’s formulation, analysis of its toxicity, and understanding of its pharmacokinetics and -dynamics with this Medicinal Chemistry course offered at Radboud University.

Research Master in Molecular Medicine
With the Molecular Medicine master programme from Erasmus University Rotterdam, bring yourself to the forefront of developments in biomedical science. Work with acclaimed research groups, do extensive research, and write up a thesis.

Science and Business Management
The programme enables graduates of bachelor’s programmes in the life- or natural sciences to combine their passions for science and business. The Science and Business Management programme at Utrecht University will equip you with the knowledge and tools to identify, manage, and overcome problems that arise in each phase of the innovation process.

Applied Physics - Mastertrack Biophysics and Soft Matter
This Applied Physics - Mastertrack Biophysics and Soft Matter MSc programme from Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) takes a physics-first approach to studying life and soft materials.
Research in Physics, Cosmology
In the field of cosmology we look for scientific answers to the most fundamental questions that one can ask: Where do we come from? How did the Universe start? How did it evolve and where does it go? Apply to the Research in Physics, Cosmology MSc programme at Leiden University.
