Medical Biotechnology (Classe L-2)-Enrolled from 2014/15 Academic Year

The Degree programme in Medical Biotechnology supports cooperation opportunities and mobility with leading international universities, as well as the possibility for students to earn credits through exchange education and training programmes with Partner organizations.
Bilateral agreements with the University of Leuven (Katolieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium) ), the University of Lleida (Universitat de Lleida, Spain) and the LUMC (Leids Universitair Medish Centrum) of the University of Leiden (Netherland) are active in the framework of the Erasmus + programme. In recent years, a growing number of students have developed their professionalism and the European dimension of their training through residence periods abroad. Associated Universities represent highly recognized European institutions, featuring reference schools in biomedical sciences. The students will thus be offered exciting opportunities to enhance their CVs and evaluate their interest in extending their careers in an international setting.
The Degree course in Medical Biotechnology offers third year students the possibility to carry out practical training for the preparation of their final thesis work in one of the aforementioned institutions. The period abroad amounts to max. 3 months equivalent to 14 credits (8 CFUs from the practical side, + 6 CFUs from elective activities). A positive evaluation of the period abroad is required. The latter is defined by the tutor in the foreign university, the Unimi tutor and is subjected to the approval by the Unimi Didactic Council. Erasmus students who obtain outstanding results, proved by an official evaluation letter of the foreign tutor to the President of the Masters Commission, will be rewarded with an additional point in the final Laurea Grade.
Besides general informative meetings organized by the University, the Degree course in Medical Biotechnology provides specific support to interested/selected students through the organization of specific informative session and/or meeting with the tutor for mobility.
