The bachelor's degree programme in biology combines a broad fundamental scientific education, which includes a number of internships (often in small groups) and excursions (as well as teaching from other disciplines, e.g. chemistry), with a specialisation through selection of biological subject modules in the final semesters. The focus is on physiology, genetics, microbiology, ecology, botany, zoology and developmental biology. The degree course has a highly research-oriented and practical focus.

All three master's degree programmes have a highly research-oriented and practical focus, and provide students with the option of a broad or very specific education by allowing them to choose special biological modules, including specific master's degree programmes in molecular and cellular biosciences and biodiversity sciences. The focus is on physiology, genetics, microbiology, ecology, botany, zoology and developmental biology. In preparation for the final thesis, there are smaller modules with research tasks completed in work groups.

There are extensive but close networks with the other institutes of the faculty and the other faculties of natural sciences and medicine as well as with research institutions: Institute for Plant Biochemistry, Institute for Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research, Environmental Research Centre, German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research and the University Association Halle-Jena-Leipzig. In addition to the CRC, RTGs, including inter-institutional and inter-disciplinary projects, also connect the work groups.
