Yes, you can pursue a PhD abroad after completing your master's in Life Science.
Germany offers strong opportunities for PhD programs in life sciences, especially for candidates with your academic background. Most programs are taught in English and require a relevant master's degree, research experience, and proof of English proficiency (such as IELTS or TOEFL).
Admission requirements and deadlines vary by university and program, and are subject to change. Some programs also provide financial support during your studies.
For personalized guidance on program selection and application steps, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
