What will you learn? 

The primary objective of the Physiology, Pathologic Physiology, Medical Chemistry, and Biochemistry degree programme is to prepare qualified professionals in scientific tasks in the fields of medical, physiological, pathophysiological, chemical, and biochemical sciences.

 The doctoral degree programme develops the skills of excellent master's degree graduates of medical, veterinary, pharmaceutical or natural science disciplines. Those skills include the ability to perform independent creative tasks in the area of research, development, and implementing clinical applications. Therefore the studies are focused on the deepening of their theoretical foundations and introducing them to modern discoveries in the fields of Biochemistry, Physiology, Pathophysiology, and Biology while focusing on practical applications in medical sciences. 

The graduates of the field are encouraged to continue their scientific-pedagogic careers at universities or clinical medicine fields. They can also work in research institute laboratories focusing on Biochemistry, Physiology, and all related sciences, as independent developer staff. 

There are two specialisations available in the programme - Physiology and Pathological Physiology, and Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry.

Career opportunities 

The graduates of the field are encouraged to continue their scientific-pedagogic careers at universities, specifically in Theoretical Medicine institutes or in clinical discipline areas of faculty hospitals. They can also work in the laboratories of research institutes focusing on Biochemistry, Physiology, and every related science. The students will be able to continue their scientific pursuits in the areas of basic and applied research.
