Biofabrication

Biofabrication is a truly multidisciplinary area of research. It requires an understanding of chemistry, physics, biology, medicine, robotics and computer science. Biofabrication can be applied in tissue engineering, for generating 3D in vitro biologic models or medical therapeutic products.

As a graduate you will have a strong research background in Biofabrication and a broad basic knowledge of the field, which enables you to pursue a career in academic (PhD) or industrial/commercial directions, including R&D, sales, consultancy. Your considerable research experience abroad will make you an attractive candidate for any Biofabrication-related position in the world. 
If you aspire a PhD degree after finishing the Biofabrication programme, you can enrol in the PhD programme Regenerative Medicine of the Graduate School of Life Sciences in Utrecht. Thus, a double MSc degree could be followed by a double PhD degree from UMC Utrecht and Queensland University of Technology.

Biofabrication is a research-driven Master’s programme comprising a first year of coursework and research at Utrecht University / UMC Utrecht, followed by a research project. The programme starts with Introducing Life Sciences, a mandatory introduction week for all Master’s students of the GSLS.
