Master's dissertation
Students enrolled in any of the practice modules: "Professional Work Experience and Research in Structural Biochemistry and Molecular Biology"
or "Professional Work Experience and Research in Molecular Pathology", should be integrated into a research group during the academic year in which he/she will be pursuing this Master. During this period, he/she will develop a research project through which him/her must acquire some skills for research. At the end of practice the students will present their Final Master Thesis which involves the submission of a written report and the oral defense of the work done during practice in from of a jury made of three teachers.
