About the Program
The track provides an academic framework of excellence with the appropriate curriculum of studies to complement the experimental training of the student in one of the laboratories of our faculty that perform research in this area. The aim is to enable the student to obtain an MSc in the fields of Cell Biology and Immunology with a strong experimental and theoretical background, opening the doors for further PhD studies or for teaching and/or research in related industry or in the health system.
Why Cell Biology and Immunology?
The Cell Biology and Immunology track is taught in English and designed to prepare students for future independent careers in research and teaching in cell biology and immunology or related disciplines. The educational program emphasizes interdisciplinary training and collaborative and interactive research, an approach based on the idea that solving difficult problems requires the integration of individuals with common goals but differing expertise. A large number of top-rated labs are affiliated to this MSc track, giving the student a range of options of research topics. Research in this program enables acquaintance with cutting edge scientific instrumentation for molecular, cell biology and biochemical studies, advanced microscopy and work with cell culture and animal models.
The curriculum consists of 30 hours in addition to practical research in the lab.
