Educating the next generation of scientists

Our scientists participate in teaching courses in the life sciences to students of the University of Vienna and the Medical University of Vienna. Many courses in the undergraduate curriculum take place at the Max Perutz Labs, providing hands-on education by experienced researchers. Many of our research groups also participate in the Vienna BioCenter Summer School. 

Master & Diploma Studies

Master’s program in Molecular Precision Medicine

The Master’s program in Molecular Precision Medicine, offered jointly by the Medical University of Vienna and the University of Vienna, focuses on understanding human disease at a molecular and mechanistic level. It brings together experts from basic science, clinical research, and medicine to train students in the principles and future directions of precision medicine

Graduates of the program are well prepared for careers in biomedical research across academia and industry, with strong skills in bioinformatics, data science, and molecular biology. The program also equips students with a foundational understanding of clinical processes, drug development, and the broader ethical and public health implications of precision medicine, enabling them to bridge the gap between research and clinical application.
