The educational goal of Industrial Nanobiotechnologies for Pharmaceuticals master degree is to create highly specialized professionals able to satisfy the needs of research, manufacture and quality control in the area of nanotechnologies applied to industrial pharmaceutical biotechnology that merge into nanomedicine. This interdisciplinary science combines knowledges in the physical, biological and pharmaceutical and medical areas with the goal of treating human pathologies at atomic and molecular levels by exploiting the peculiar nanomaterial properties.

The master degree is currently under evaluation by the Italian Ministry of University (MUR) and by the National Agency for University and Research Evaluation (ANVUR), and as soon as approved it will officially become part of the University’s teaching offer.
