The Master’s in Biobased Sciences focuses on the sustainable transition from a petrochemical to a biobased and circular economy. Students are trained to cross bridges between disciplines and become an expert in one of those fields.
There are three specialisations to choose from. You will develop thorough expertise in one of the three disciplines, and you will gain basic knowledge about the other two disciplines. To view all detailed information about each specialisation, check the Study Handbook of this master's.
Learn how to optimise biomass production using plant physiology, breeding, and Systems Analysis to supply high-quality biomass for a biobased economy. You’ll explore diverse production systems—from crops, seaweed to microalgae—and how to match crops with sustainable applications. There is also a variety of Restricted Optional courses, like Bioresources or Modelling of Biobased Production Systems’, that you can take throughout your first year, some of which should be suitable for your chosen thesis.
Focus on converting biomass into valuable products like bioplastics, chemicals, and energy through integrated knowledge of engineering, chemistry, and process technology. You’ll learn to design efficient, sustainable biorefineries from lab to industrial scale. There is also a variety of Restricted Optional courses, like Biobased Materials Science en Environmental Electrochemical Engineering, that you can take throughout your first year.
