Course description
Biology has a prominent role in modern research and is characterised by a strongly innovative approach.
This degree programmes will allow you to gain a solid grounding in the different fields of biology and also to become familiar with the methods, theories and new technologies applicable in different fields of research and production.
The modules of this degree programme include the study of modern biomolecular disciplines, which are essential to understand all biological phenomena. The programme offers numerous practical workshops starting from the first year.
Halfway through the second year, students will choose between two different streams that provide specialised training:
- the biomedical curriculum aims at understanding biological issues relating to human health;
- the cells and organisms curriculum focuses on studying fundamental cellular processes, also from an evolutionary standpoint.
The degree programme in biology trains modern, versatile professionals who can choose to continue their studies or access the labour market. If you chose not to continue your studies in our second cycle programme, you will find job opportunities in biological labs that undertake research, analysis or quality control, where you will be offered mainly technical positions. Otherwise you might choose to sit the State Exam to become a Junior Biologist and work as a free-lance consultant in the areas envisaged by the laws in force.
Lessons are held in Italian.
