The MemBioMed programme is a 2-year Master's programme, consisting of 4 semesters. Semesters 1, 2 and 3 are completed successively at the three partner universities. During these 3 semesters, MemBioMed students are part of local Masters programmes for the most relevant teaching modules that have been chosen. In addition, specially tailored modules have been developed for the MemBioMed programme in each University. Theoretical courses are complemented by practical training in research laboratories or at one of our private partners in the form of lab rotations and research projects during each semester enabling students to gain experience in a variety of research topics and methodologies. Semester 4 consists exclusively of the Master project and the writing of the Master's thesis, which will be prepared in one of the partner institution's research laboratories or industrial associated structures.
To complement the traditional theoretical and practical modules, and to ensure smooth transitions between the institutions, orientation events have been included in the academic programme. These activities are offered every semester, in the form of an integration week, kick-off days and a summer school, and have been designed to enrich the traditional modules with a fuller range of notions and techniques to better apprehend biomembrane-related projects in both fundamental and applied research contexts, for networking with relevant scientific communities from academia and industry, and to provide soft skills designed to meet the changing needs and expectations of the professional world.
