Bioprocess Science is a bachelor subject covering both the biological and technical sides of bioprocesses, drawing on molecular, environmental and medical biology together with chemistry. Students learn to screen and select organisms that produce pharmaceuticals, enzymes, alternative protein and omega fatty acids. Much of the work is laboratory based, and students are treated as members of the scientific team from day one. All teaching and project writing is in English, and about a third of students come from abroad. The degree lasts three years in Roskilde and is combined with a second subject, with time split equally.
