Master's programme in Biopharmaceuticals

Hi,

Congratulations on your admission to the Master’s Programme in Biopharmceuticals at Uppsala University. I wish you a warm welcome.

Here is some information about a few practical things in preparation for the start of the autumn semester on September 2.

Please make sure to activate your student account well before the semester starts. The registration for the first course will be open in Ladok from Friday 26 July to 25 August. An activated student account is needed for registering yourself on the first programme course. It is very important that registration is done before the start of each course. Otherwise you will not be able to start the course.

During your first year you will follow one course at a time, and you will start with Biopharmaceuticals: orientation course for Master's students 7.5 credits. Your programme's master schedule shows the start and end dates for all mandatory courses. The schedule for the individual courses will be finalized during the summer, and you will find their schedules in TimeEdit.

To keep up to date with the Master’s programme in Biopharmaceuticals feel free to visit the programme's modules and other pages here in Studium.

If you have any questions related to the programme or your studies, you can contact the study counsellor.

Again, a warm welcome and I look forward to seeing you on September 2.

Yours faithfully,

Erik Jacobsson, program coordinator

If you have the necessary entrance requirements, you will get help with the registration. If you are late contacting the study councellor, you will lose your place on the programme.

If you are on the reserve list

If there is a vacancy, reserves will be contacted via antagning.se (or universityadmissions.se) and e-mail, if necessary also by phone. We will use the information you have entered on antagning.se (or universityadmissions.se).

The reserve admission process is between 21 to 29 August. Called reserves have a maximum of 24 hours to respond to the offer, and the time becomes shorter the closer the start of the semester is. If you do not respond to the reserv admission within the deadline, you will lose your place on the programme.
