Overview

Indeed, students can choice among three parallel curricula:

molecular diagnostics and biotechnology

nutrition and functional food

biodiversity and ecosystems management.

These curricula, in combination with core courses, give students flexibility to tailor their degree to their background, interests, and career goals.

In order to support the mobility and the successful integration of students and graduates in an international context, all the courses will be presented in English.

Career

The goal of the Master course in Biological Sciences is to prepare its graduates to start a career in different areas of Biological Sciences with particular regard to scientific research and diagnostics on biomedical, nutritional, and environmental fields.

Graduates will be able to deal with the application of biology and biotechnology, at functional and molecular level, in industry, in service sector and in various areas of public administration.

The degree in Biological Sciences at the University of Camerino, through the specific curricula, properly prepares professional figures, such as the nutritional biologist, who are allowed to formulate personal diets and oversee education programs and nutritional and environmental surveillance programs. All curricula will prepare students to engage in research, lead lab teams, make development and planning decisions, create and apply research modalities to large projects.

Graduates in Biological Sciences will be adequately prepared for access to third education level (PhD programs or specialization school) in molecular biology and biotechnology all over the world.
