- Grounded in the five core research themes of the Amsterdam Movement Sciences (AMS) institute, the Research Master’s includes courses on sports, musculoskeletal health, tissue function and regeneration, aging and vitality, and rehabilitation and development. Topics covered range from molecular biology to systems neuroscience, and from biomechanics to motor behavior.
- In addition to becoming well versed in these research areas, students will be trained in state-of-the-art research methodologies and advanced statistics. The interactive, small-scale teaching methods used in the program allow students to have in-depth discussions that meet the level and intensity of a Research Master’s program. Plus, all the lecturers are renowned experts in their fields of research.
- After completing the Research Master’s, Students will be well prepared to pursue a scientific career, either starting with a Ph.D. position or by entering an R&D environment. Students will also be well equipped for other research-related positions.
