Study Guide

Learning objectives

The student is able to combine his or her skills in bioprocesses with other required skills, such as mathematical-physical, chemical, microbiological, process or measurement technological skills. These skills help him or her gain a deeper understanding of the operating principles of applications related to bioprocess management in the natural environment, communities, and the industrial or other sector in the society. They also support the student when he or she performs development tasks and cooperates with other experts in the field.

The student learns to use source literature to find bioprocess-related, in-depth information for the plans of the application assignments. He or she also learns to report on the observations and research in accordance with the principles of scientific publications.

In addition, he or she learns to be an active member in a research team in a networked, multidisciplinary RDI environment.
