FH – HES

Abstract

The newly established Institute of Chemistry and Biological Chemistry (ICBC) at the Department of Life Sciences and Facility Management of the Zurich University of Applied Sciences offers Bachelor degrees in chemistry and biological chemistry and, starting 2008, a Master degree in Life Sciences. While the Bachelor curriculum aims at training chemists with competencies that are modelled after the former FH-Diploma, the objective of the Master degree is to train Life Science chemists with specialised knowledge in surface (bio-)chemisty, nanotechnology, protein purification, down stream processing and tissue engineering.
