Programme presentation Do you envision yourself working in the life science industry in the future? As a graduate of the Master's Programme in Bioentrepreneurship (MBE) you will have a solid foundation for working with the development and management of projects and companies in the life science field. In this programme, we refer to the term "life science" as the main areas of drug development, biotechnology, diagnostics and medical technology (including digital health), with a focus on improved human health. A key feature of this programme is the application of knowledge in the outside world and we use real life cases to learn from. Most courses are tailored to the specific conditions that prevail in the life science industry concerning for example marketing, product- and business-development. In addition, the programme includes two practical courses at companies, authorities or other relevant organisations, in Sweden or abroad. In these placements, you apply what you have learned to create value for you and the hosting company. Additionally, the degree project is usually performed in a company setting. Many of the lecturers throughout the programme are experienced life science business leaders who act as inspiration and share their knowledge and experience. The programme is interdisciplinary with a varied background of students and teachers as well as the pedagogical methods that are used in the programme. In addition, some of the courses in the programme are offered together with our partner schools in Stockholm. The business administration courses are offered by the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and the elective courses are offered by the Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship. Together these experiences will give you valuable insights into the life science sector as well as a head start for your future career.
