 Around 40 students who begin the Bachelor’s program each year receive a solid basic education in biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics and can subsequently choose from a wide range of courses that allow the students to focus on specific topics.Early on in their education, they have the opportunity to participate in various research groups, an activity that always proves particularly motivating.To promote the further training of young scientists and a wide spectrum of basic scientific research, the SNI initiated a PhD School in 2013.
