Academic content
Biology is a natural science that did not develop into a unified, exact, and experimental science until the 20th century. Since this time, biological research has concentrated primarily on finding universal principles and laws for living things. Biology is divided into the following areas of teaching and research: biochemistry (of plants), botany (plant physiology), botany (functional morphology and bionics), bioinformatics (only as minor field), developmental biology of animals, evolutionary biology and ecology of animals, genetics and molecular biology, geobotany, limnology, microbiology, molecular immunology, neurobiology and biophysics, neurobiology and animal physiology, plant biotechnology, and cell biology. In keeping with the requirements of the teaching education program, the curriculum aims to include the entire spectrum of the field.

The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
