Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
- In the field of biological sciences and particularly in the field of the biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in biological sciences.
- Conduct extensive research and development projects related to biological sciences, in biochemistry and in molecular and cell biology.
- Apply, mobilise, articulate and promote the knowledge and skills acquired in order to help lead and complete a project.
- Show initiative and be able to work independently and in teams.
- Manage and lead research, development and innovation projects.
- Understand unprecedented problems in biological sciences, and more specifically in biochemistry and molecular and cell biology and its applications.
- Methodically research valid scientific information, critically analyse, propose and argue potentially innovative solutions to targeted problems.
- Master communication techniques.
- Communicate, both orally and in writing, their findings, original proposals, knowledge and underlying principles, in a clear, structured and justified manner.
- Master the techniques of written and oral scientific communication in both French and English.
- Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
