Overview

The Double Degree curriculum mainly focuses on immunology and clinical applications; the students admitted to this program will attend their second-year classes and will train to prepare their thesis at the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences, and at the end of the course will obtain the title of Master of Science Degree (MSc) in Biomedical Sciences also from the German University.

Job opportunities for graduates in the Biomedical Sciences programme of the University of Insubria are available in the fields of scientific communication, in the medical management of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies (as medical advisor or medical science liason), and in laboratories performing clinical, biomolecular, genetic and cytogenetic, microbiological, pharmaco-toxicological, and quality control analyses. Biomedical scientists are also qualified to actively participate in the design and conduction of research projects on biological concepts and theories applied to the biomedical field, as well as in the dissemination of the achieved results across the scientific community.

The degree also provides access to doctoral programs in the fields of Biology and Biomedicine, to various specialization schools in the Biomedical area, and to the state exam for qualification as a biologist.

Quick Facts:

The numerous collaborations and contacts with Italian and international laboratories, the Erasmus exchange program, and the possibility of attending a Double Degree programme at the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences offer the opportunity of acquiring a highly appreciated international experience and preparation in the work world.
Furthermore, the courses are taught entirely in English, accustoming the students to mastering what is now considered the official language in the scientific and working community.
