The 120-credit Master in Biomedical Sciences with professional focus in preclinical research centers the learning of the student on the laboratory phase of research that aims to identify the causes and consequences of diseases, putative drug targets, or products and techniques before they are tested on humans. It is based on a solid grounding in fundamental research, biopharmaceutics (pharmacotherapy, health technology assessment, biosynthetic drugs and pharmacovigilance), biotechnology and therapy (clinical and non-clinical experimental approaches, biomedical engineering).
The degree programme will boast a significant professional dimension thanks to visits to companies and hospitals, practical projects and a 4-month placement in a laboratory or company in Belgium or abroad.
The student will also have the opportunity to write a thesis based on their work in a research laboratory, working on a personal project right through from design to completion during 10 months.
This Master comprises a few core lectures, complemented by courses selected by the students from a large list of topics. The emphasis is on interactive learning, via a series of practical and personal projects.
Students also have the opportunity to gain practical experience in handling animals, thanks to training which leads to professional certificates in laboratory animal sciences.
This programme has a particularly professional dimension, with several visits to companies and hospitals, practical projects, a 10-month master thesis project, and a 4-month placement in a laboratory or company, either in Belgium or abroad.
In January, students take exams based on the subjects studied during the first semester. In June, students take exams based on the subjects studied in the second semester.
For some subjects, there are regular evaluations based on reports submitted after each session of practical projects. Marks awarded for these practical projects represent a significant percentage of the final marks.
Students begin work on a thesis during the second semester and submit a report regarding progress made on this project in June (the evaluation takes place in front of a jury).
In case of failed evaluations during the January session (for first semester courses) and/or during the June session (second semester evaluations), the evaluation can be presented again in August.
The students pursue their thesis work during the first semester. Only a few courses are organised during that time. In January, students take exams based on the subjects studied during the first semester, and submit, then defend their completed thesis in front of a jury. The next courses are taught at the beginning of the second semester, prior to the 4-month internship, which concludes by a report submitted in June. Evaluations of the second semester take place in June.
In case of failed evaluations during the January session (for first semester courses) and/or during the June session (second semester evaluations), the evaluation can be presented again in August.
Students have the opportunity to spend part of their Master studying abroad, within the context of the Erasmus study programme.
