Study abroad


The Master's Degree Program in Medical Biotechnology and Molecular Medicine supports international mobility through collaborations with leading international universities and offers students the opportunity to earn academic credits through educational and training exchanges with partner institutions.
Available programs include:
- Bilateral agreements within the Erasmus+ framework with the University of Leuven (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium), the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), University of Leiden (the Netherlands), and the University of Cantabria (Universidad de Cantabria, Spain);
- Traineeships at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB), Bellinzona, Switzerland.
In recent years, an increasing number of students have enhanced their professional skills and strengthened the European dimension of their education through periods of study and research abroad. Partner universities are highly recognized European institutions, hosting well-established Master's and PhD programs in biomedical sciences and offering opportunities to conduct research across a broad range of scientific fields covered by the Degree Program. These experiences provide students with valuable opportunities to strengthen their curricula and to explore the possibility of pursuing an international career.
The Master's Degree Program in Medical Biotechnology and Molecular Medicine allows second-year students to complete their entire practical training for the preparation of the final thesis at one of the for ementioned partner institutions, or at other institutions with which a formal agreement has been established. Students are required to define a research project consistent with their course of study and curriculum, subject to joint approval by both the University of Milan tutor and the host institution tutor.
The period abroad has a duration of up to 9 months and corresponds to 32 ECTS credits. A positive evaluation of the period abroad is required and must be jointly issued by the host institution tutor and the University of Milan tutor and subsequently approved by the Degree Program Teaching Committee. Erasmus students who achieve outstanding results, as documented by the official evaluation letter from the host institution tutor addressed to the President of the Master's Degree Program Committee, may be awarded 1 additional point in the final degree grade.
In addition to general informational meetings organized by the University, the Degree Program in Medical Biotechnology and Molecular Medicine provides specific support to interested and selected students through dedicated information sessions and individual meetings with the mobility tutors.
