Learning Objectives

With the teaching of CELLULAR BIOTECHNOLOGIES the student expands and applies in the biotechnological field the basic knowledge acquired during the previous studies. Moreover, it matures an integrated understanding of biological phenomena and an advanced scientific preparation at the cellular and / or molecular level for biotechnological applications. Particular attention is paid to the problems related to applications in the biomedical, agricultural and environmental fields of acquired knowledge
