MLS - Study Plan
This page shows the study plan of the Curriculum in Molecular Life Sciences (2022-2023) which is similar to the only curriculum previously available for the MSc in Molecular Biology and Genetics. Slight differences between the study plans in Molecular Life Sciences (2022-2023) and in Molecular Biology and Genetics exist. The old study plan is available at the bottom of the page.
For precise and updated information on course contents and teachers, please consult this page. You can change the language of the page (upper right corner) and the academic year (Year of Enrolment/Anno di Immatricolazione). Information on teachers and contents for the second year are currently available only for Year of Enrolment 2021/2022. To change the Year of Enrolment: click on the button "Info", then change the Year of Enrolment. You may be required to click the button "study plan" to visualise subjects.
In November, students are asked to fill out study plans. For information please see this page, or contact the U.O.C. Gestione carriere studenti/ STUDENTS CAREERS DESK (see contacts here).
