Organization of studies

The Health Biology Master's degree offers cross-disciplinary teaching common to its 5 specialities, and the possibility of choosing optional modules to adapt the training to each student's professional or research project.

In addition, it is possible to reorient oneself during the course, bridges are set up with evaluation of each application individually.

First year

In the first semester, the common core teaching units (30 ECTS) enable students to acquire a base of cross-disciplinary teaching common to all courses.

In the second semester, the courses are divided into core courses (15 ECTS), course-specific courses (15 ECTS) and optional modules.

Students also complete a compulsory 8-week internship (12 ECTS). Please note: the choice of internship field can influence the choice of course in Master 2.

Second year

In semester 3, the common core courses (15 ECTS) are given to students from all backgrounds, in order to ensure a transdisciplinary training, particularly necessary for students who will continue their studies in a doctoral thesis.

The courses are supplemented by specific UEs (30 ECTS) and optional modules of your choice (12 ECTS).

In semester 4, students complete a compulsory 6-month internship (30 ECTS). They are also required to complete internships for further study and specialisation according to their personal project. Students who wish to pursue a doctoral thesis directly after their master's degree can complete a 5 to 6 month internship (21 ECTS) in a labelled research laboratory.
