After my Bachelor's degree,
I opted for the Master's
programme to deepen my expert
knowledge as well as to get
better job prospects.
The Master's programme in
'Pharmaceutical Biotechnology'
ranges from the molecular
construction of active
substances to in-vitro tests
as well as the production and
completion of drugs.
In this way the whole
value chain of modern
pharmaceutical products
is covered.
This program successfully
provides an excellent scientific
basis for a career in
pharmaceutics and biotechnology.
I did my Bachelor's degree
in biotechnology at the ZHAW
in Wädenswil. Afterwards,
I continued with my Master
in pharmaceutical biotechnology.
What fascinates me most about
biotechnology is the combination
of technology and biological
systems for the production of
pharmaceutically relevant
substances. I did my Master on
a part-time basis so I had the
opportunity to collaborate with
international partners on a
research project that spanned
several years.
I am very pleased that,
due to the knowledge I acquired
during my studies, I was able to
get an exciting job at
CSL Behring, a truly innovative
employer. Currently, I am active
in the field of system
improvements. We are concerned
with the optimization of
QM-Processes that are very
closely related to the areas of
production, research and
development. But thanks to what
I learnt during my Master,
I can also contribute to other
areas of quality management.
The Master's thesis is a key
element, as well as the
theoretical basis, of the ZHAW
Master's programme in
biotechnology. Students can work
on issues independently while
being part of a research team.
Many projects take place in
collaboration with international
research and industrial
partners. In my opinion, the
Master's thesis is a great
opportunity to be committed
to something and to raise
one's profile.
We have collaborated on several
research projects with the
Institute of Biotechnology at
the ZHAW in Wädenswil over a
number of years. We appreciate
the innovation and the
dependability of our project
partner. In the process of
developing our project, we were
also impressed by the high
standards of education in
the Master's programme.
At the Institute of
Biotechnology at the ZHAW in
in Wädenswil, we have conducted
three KTI-projects and were
able to integrate the research
results into our products. At
the moment, we employ two ZHAW
graduates in the areas of
automation technology and
information technology. For me
as an entrepreneur, it was
crucial that their education
standards were very high and
interdisciplinary.
The ZHAW ensures this.
When we recruit new people for
our team, we like to rely on
graduates from the Master's
programme at the institute.
