Alumni Erfahrungsbe­richte

After graduating from their Master’s Program at CMCB, most alumni pursue a PhD.

The majority of our alumni now work in positions involving scientific or industry research. In business, some graduates have turned their passions into their own start-ups or now make decisions at global pharmaceutical companies. Some CMCB alumni also excel in the fields of bioinformatics and bioimage analysis. Others have found their passion in scientific writing or science communication and now help bring science to life for a wider public.

Below, you can find testimonials from our alumni. Learn from their experiences, find out what studying at CMCB is really like, and hear another student’s perspective before applying to our Master’s programs!

On the right side of the photo, there is a white rectangle with a big quotation mark and text: ”The RegBioMed program has been the most rewarding experience so far in my education and scientific career. During my application, I was hoping to become a member of a well-funded and widely-known consortium of institutes dedicated to regenerative research. Nothing, however, had prepared me for the highly international and multidisciplinary environment that was revealed to me. I consider my participation in the program a considerable achievement of my scientific life. Argyro, Greece, 2017-19.”

The answer is simple: while the city is beautiful and life here is amazing, it was the Master’s program that brought me here. The outstanding scientific education and the heart of the program, the lab rotations, create a unique combination. This wealth of opportunities to gather practical experience in many different research areas gives students the ability to not only appeal to future employers but also develop their abilities as independent researchers, giving them a clearer perspective on their future careers. David, Austria, 2017-2019.”

The program is one of the few in Germany that gives you the opportunity to learn about Stem Cells, Regenerative Medicine and Translational Research. The program is very international, and you will study together with incredible young scientists from all over the world. To me, the best part is the opportunity to sneak a peek at the translation of research into the clinic. It is incredibly exciting to know more about how your scientific discovery can be introduced in a clinical trial and eventually, change the life of a patient. Elena, Bulgaria, 2017-2019.”

On the right side of the photo, there is a white rectangle with a big quotation mark and text: ”The Master of Science in Molecular Bioengineering has an interdisciplinary approach that combines Biotechnology and Biomedicine, and Bionanotechnology. It has opened my eyes to many options that I would never have considered for my future, giving me the tools to reach them. The program is taught by an international body of professors to an international body of students which come from different scientific backgrounds, Besides adding diversity to the training, it allowed me to build a wide and varied network of contacts, and create unforgettable memories. I think this Master program can be summarized as “eye-opening” in the scientific sense, and also in the social and community aspects. It will be a huge inspiration for my future. Michelle, Italy, 2018-20.”
