This information forms the basis of their application for admission to the second-cycle programme. The candidate should emphasise how this relates to the ‘Biological Medicines’ Master’s programme (approximately 5 minutes).
  3. The candidate gives a presentation on two topics selected by the Admissions Committee representative conducting the interview. During this part of the interview, the Admissions Committee representative may ask additional questions to clarify the presentation and engage in discussion with the candidate (up to 10 minutes per topic).
