Medical Biotechnology has enormous potential for developing new solutions to improve human health. Through the understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of diseases, biotechnology plays an essential role in developing drugs, vaccines, therapies and diagnostic tests. The Master’s degree in Medical Biotechnology is a unique chance to join the world-leading academics and industry professionals in implementation of multidisciplinary curriculum at the interface of biology, maths and physics.
The program’s goal is providing students with core and advanced knowledge as well as practical and research skills in biotechnology. The students will be able to be a part of the research project that requires an understanding of a wide range of techniques and scientific literature.
Biotechnology is a rapidly expanding industry driven by the development of molecular biological research, growing demand in medical diagnostics and therapeutics area. The program provides students with an advanced scientific education and prepares them for diverse careers in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
Students will develop a practical and theoretical understanding of the molecular techniques used in the biotechnology sector, obtain skills using professional research equipment in over 20 laboratories.
This program is taught completely in English and welcomes international students with basic knowledge in biology, maths and physics, allowing them to earn a degree that will be recognized both in Russia and abroad.
