Research-based learning

Hallmark of Bachelor Biology – Research-based learning

The University of Bremen supports Faculty 2 with a 2-year project aimed at strengthening concepts of research-based learning in the Bachelor Biology program.

Here, research-based learning is taken to mean research-oriented studies in which three aspects especially stand out; namely, students learn how to conduct scientific work, they are integrated in ongoing research, and experience themselves as real researchers conducting their own experiments and projects.

The project aims are

• to appropriate the Bachelor Biology program under the aspect of research-based learning,
• to better integrate existing elements of research-based learning across all modules, and
• to introduce new elements of research-based learning.
