ScM in Microbiologia Molecolare e Immunologia

The two-year Master of Science Program (ScM) is designed for students preparing for Ph.D. programs or considering upper-level research positions in academia, government, or industry.

The degree is constructed to provide students with a capacity to perform independent research and a firm understanding of research principles and practices.

In addition to the required coursework, ScM students conduct one or two laboratory rotations, take a written comprehensive examination at the conclusion of the first year, complete original research under the guidance of a faculty mentor, write a research-based thesis, and present the research in a seminar.
