Master of Science in Medizinisch-Pharmazeutische Biotechnologie

The Master Degree in Medical-pharmaceutical biotechnology provides an advanced scientific preparation on biotechnology topics oriented to medicine and pharmacology through the acquisition of integrated skills at the biochemical, biological-molecular and cellular levels. The course also provides competencies for business creation and management.

One of the peculiarities of the course is the wide involvement of students in practical laboratory activities. The teaching schedules of both years provide practical exercises and promote attendance in laboratories, where students carry out their thesis internship. Internships can be made in highly qualified university research laboratories, in companies of the biotechnology sector and in Centers of Excellence such as: Ospedale Policlinico San Martino-IRCCS, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) and Istituto Giannina Gaslini.

The University of Genoa offers a wide range of opportunities to international students, who choose to attend a degree course, a PhD or decide to take part in the Erasmus+ programme. You can also personalise your academic path by choosing single teaching units, or by attending the Italian Language and Culture courses. The International Students Office is available to provide further information.

In addition to its two key functions, research and education, UniGe engages in Third Mission activities aimed at spreading culture, knowledge, and transferring research results outside the academic community, thus contributing to the social and cultural growth of the territory.
