Why choose this Master’s Degree?
- The Master’s Degree Program in Medical Biotechnology trains professionals with innovative and multidisciplinary skills for precision medicine, diagnostics, and advanced therapies. The program aims to prepare young researchers to work in dynamic, highly specialized biomedical settings.
- The course is taught in Italian using a blended-learning approach, combining face-to-face and online teaching activities, including both synchronous (live) and asynchronous (via recorded video lectures) sessions, as well as slides and materials available on the Moodle platform. The total number of credits delivered remotely accounts for approximately 40% of the total class hours outlined in the curriculum.
- Instructional activities are organized by concentrating in-person classes on the same days and reserving the remaining days for remote activities, allowing for easier management of the study program. Attendance is not mandatory, though strongly recommended; the blended format ensures greater organizational flexibility, making it particularly suitable for working students as well. Exams are held in person.
- Innovative teaching methods and strong interaction between students and faculty foster dynamic learning, with a particular focus on the “omics” sciences, nano/biotechnologies, and aspects of research and technological development in various fields of medicine.
- To prepare their experimental thesis and apply the skills they have acquired in practice, students can use the University of Brescia’s thematic biotechnology platforms (Cellular Diagnostics Platform, Proteomics Platform, Zebrafish Platform, Imaging Platform, and Genetic and Genomic Analysis Platform), attend research laboratories in Italy and abroad, or complete internships at leading companies in the biomedical sector.
