Bioinformatics for Health Sciences

The Master’s programme in Bioinformatics for Health Sciences is designed to provide professionals and researchers with skills and abilities geared towards the development of new computational strategies and IT systems for their use in biomedical research.

Phamaceutical industry and biotechnology

The primary aim of this Master’s programme is to train students in the area of companies dedicated to the research of drugs and biotechnology products to prevent and treat human diseases.

Biomedical Research

The Master’s degree in Biomedical Research focuses on the study of the molecular, cellular, physiological and evolutionary bases of biological processes and their pathological or adaptive alterations, and is mainly aimed at students who wish to obtain a PhD in different fields of Biomedicine.

Clinical Analysis Laboratory

This master's programme focuses on the application of laboratory techniques for clinical diagnosis and presymptomatic and predisposition testing. Students will study aspects related to clinical and environmental microbiology, biochemistry, immunology, clinical and multifactorial genetics, molecular genetics applied to forensic diagnostics, and genetic counselling and assisted reproduction techniques, as well as to the clinical assessment and interpretation of results obtained with laboratory techniques.

Public Health

The primary objective of the master's programme in Public Health is to enable students to understand health and disease processes and their determinants from the point of view of the population and to address health issues by means of collective interventions to promote, protect and restore health.

Pre-service science teacher training

This master is addressed to high school science teachers and it provides them with knowledge on regulation and organisation of centres, an initiation to research, and tools (especially ICT) for their teaching activity. 

Master of Multidisciplinary Research in Experimental Sciences- MRES (coordinated with the BIST)

The programme offers highly flexible and personalized hands-on research training in a multidisciplinary research environment. In addition to the research aspect, the master’s will also develop talented scientists through experiential training in professional skills such as scientific communication, project management, responsible research and innovation.
