Master

The Graduate School of One Health-Emerging Infectious Diseases (1H-EID) introduces a new EID cursus within the Master 1 and Master 2 in Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB), tailored to appeal to international students with mobility scholarships and overseas placements.

Centered on Emerging Infectious Diseases (EIDs), the programme presents an extensive array of enhanced courses, alongside customised placements in premier research labs. This presents a distinctive chance to delve into various facets of research encompassing virology, microbiology, epidemiology, and social sciences.

In September 2023, a new cursus focusing on Emerging Infectious Diseases was created for both Master 1 and Master 2 within the Molecular and Cellular Biology Master (BMC). Mobility scholarships are available for international students, as well as scholarships for placements abroad as part of this cursus.

First-year cursus

In Master 1, the Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) cursus enriches the existing curriculum in molecular biology, cell biology, bioinformatics, virology, and microbiology. It introduces new courses in computational biology, ecology, and “One Health”. Work placements in emerging infectious diseases take place in research labs associated with the Graduate School of One Health-Emerging Infectious Diseases.

For health students, introductory research courses (PIR) are offered in the fields of infectiology or public health, such as “Resistance and adaptation of microorganisms to anti-infectives“, “Evolution: main mechanisms – biological and medical approaches“, and a new pathway “Emerging infectious diseases“.

Second-year pathway

 

In the Master 2 Molecular and Cellular Biology, Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) pathway, students engage in a core module titled “One Health, an interdisciplinary approach.” They have the option to specialize in one of two majors:

  • Biology of Emerging Pathogens
  • Epidemiology and Biostatistics

Students can complement their studies by selecting either the other major or one of three available minors:

  1. Human-Animal-Environment Interface
  2. Evolutionary Dynamics
  3. Human and Social Sciences

Additionally, they have the flexibility to choose from a variety of supplementary modules such as From the Field, Innovation, Novel Vaccine Strategies, Monoclonal antibodies and therapeutics, Modeling of infectious diseases, Antibiotic resistance, Epidemiology and Surveillance, among others.

The highlights of our M2:

  • Highly customised Master 2 internships within top-tier, inter-partner laboratories affiliated with the Graduate School
  • Interdisciplinary approach
  • Students from scientifically diverse backgrounds
  • Outgoing mobility scholarships allowing students to carry out their internship abroad
  • Scientific outreach program with webinars, conferences, afterworks throughout the year
