Master's and PhD programmes
The Master's and PhD programmes of the Faculty of Science are offered by the Graduate School of Natural Sciences and the Graduate School of Life Sciences. Together, these programmes cover a wide range of disciplines. Since the programmes are deliberately flexible, you can create an individual learning profile that matches your own personal interests.
Utrecht University is a research university. Therefore, all our Master's and PhD programmes aim at educating students in a research-intensive setting. Our students participate in ongoing top research projects under the daily supervision of our excellent scientists.
If you are a highly talented student in the Natural Sciences or Life Sciences, we want to give you the opportunity to become a leading researcher in either pure or applied scientific research.
