The Department of Chemistry "Ugo Schiff" of the University of Florence offers a new Master course in Advanced Molecular Sciences to train and educate the next generation of chemists on the cutting-edge aspects of research in Chemistry of Materials and Life Sciences that will give them the skills required for an advanced career in industry and academia. The Master will be conducted in English. This course is aimed at Italian and international students with a BSc degree in Chemistry or similar BSc degrees as detailed in the admission rules of the regulation. At the end of this degree students will have acquired skills in the design, synthesis and characterization of materials and biological molecules. To this end, the Course will also provide elements of other disciplines such as Biology, Medicine and Materials Sciences. The achieved competences and skills will cover the study of inorganic and organic materials, small bioactive molecules, complex biological macromolecules and diagnostic tools. The graduates will gain the ability to deal with any kind of synthetic, diagnostic and characterization task they will need in their professional life. Their expertise will be a precious asset both for successfully carrying out PhD courses and for entering the job market.
The Master Degree in Advanced Molecular Science is part of a project presented by the Department of Chemistry that was funded by the Italian Ministry for Education, Universities and Research (MIUR) after awarding to the Department the status of a “Department of Excellence”.
Part of this project consists in the organization of a Master Course that will be offered entirely in English. The Course reflects the two main areas of research carried out within the Department, i.e. Material Chemistry and Chemistry for Life Sciences. As a result, the "excellence" in research will be directly transferred to the training activity offered by the Department.
The Department will be directly involved in the organization of the Master Course and will offer scholarships to support the living expenses of the enrolled foreign students. Scholarships will be awarded to non-local students based on their previous career and of a mandatory interview aiming at assessing their preparation and motivation. All details about enrollment and application for scholarship will be published on the Master’s website
The University of Florence dates back to the Studium Generale set up by the Florentine Republic in 1321. It has had very famous scholars (Galileo Galilei) and professors as well as the two most recent Italian Prime Ministers (Giuseppe Conte and Mario Draghi). Only in 1923 however, the University acquired its actual name and was transformed into a modern comprehensive university, with its 21 Departments and 10 Schools.
The Unifi offers 127 Bachelor's Degrees 57 Masters's Degrees, 9 Long-cycle degrees, 24 PhD Programs and over 50 specialization schools. Amongst those programmes, over 40 are international: 10 taught in English and 31 with double or joint degrees. Within most degree programs, courses in English are offered.
Unifi is one of the most popular Universities for Erasmus students (over 900 incoming a year) and is part of EUniWell, a European Universities Alliance. The network has identified four key areas for research and teaching, closely linked to UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The University of Florence is one of the most important Italian public universities and has a strong international vocation. It fosters cooperation with academic and research institutions all over the world and welcomes foreign teaching staff, researchers and students to promote cultural and scientific internationalization. To this end, through its Departments and Schools, the University promotes the hospitality of highly qualified guests from all over the world.
Moreover, it traditionally devotes particular attention to the development of collaborative relationships with foreign universities and to the process of internationalization, which has become a strategic and dominant aspect of the life of the university in research, teaching, the organization of study programmes, mobility of teachers, researchers and students.
For these reasons, the University of Florence qualifies itself as one of the privileged destinations for international guests.
The Welcome Service helps international students, PhD students, fellows, researchers and professors hosted by the University of Florence within specific European or International projects to find suitable accommodation in town.
The Welcome Service can book the guests in the university residences and other local accommodation facilities and provides information on online platforms for finding accommodation.
One hundred and forty-six degree courses (first and second level and single-cycle) of which 15 are in English, organised into 10 Schools, a total population of around fifty-one thousand enrolled, a quarter of whom come from outside the region. The University of Florence is a large university, with a very wide range of courses spanning all subject areas. There are over nine thousand graduates every year in Florence. Moreover, the percentage of Florentine graduates in work one year after graduating is above the national average, according to Almalaurea data.
