Undergraduate education at MBB

The Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics (MBB) is teaching for students of several different programmes of Karolinska Institutet.

In first-cycle education (undergraduate level) the department is involved in teaching within two programmes; Biomedicine, and Medicine.

In second-cycle education (graduate level) the department teaches in the Master programme in Biomedicine. Altogether teachers from MBB are active in six major courses within these programmes and more than 100 doctoral students, post docs, researchers and faculty from MBB are active in our teaching.

We also provide course laboratories to enable experimental studies within all educational programmes of Karolinska Institutet.
