Marine Biobased Specialties
The Marine Bio-based Products research group focuses on research into the substances contained in algae, seaweeds and (salt-tolerant) plants (in the sea and on land) and their evaluation. Refining resources into useful ingredients is in line with our development into a sustainable, bio-based and circular economy. The research group carries out research with an evident chemical component (refining, modification, application) and fits in with an environment orientated towards applied research. Thanks to its nature and character, the Marine Bio-based Products research group has an especially good connection with our Sustainable Dynamic Delta.
Would you like to work with us in a minor?
In the minor Becoming Fit for the Future (30 ECTS, or download the brochure) you learn how to set up, carry out and defend practically-orientated research. See also the brief description of the content above. Internally (to HZ University of Applied Sciences), no conditions apply other than that the minor must be successfully completed. Externally, other conditions might apply - ask your own institution about this. For participation in this minor, the conditions set down in the implementation regulations of your Bachelor’s programme apply.
