Perspectives after mSSB?

  PhD, several doctoral schools   R & D in academic and private

laboratories

The aim of master 2 in Systems and Synthetic Biology - mSSB - is to provide students from the Life Sciences, Mathematics, Engineering, Chemistry, Physical and Computer Sciences a mean to fruitfully engage in collaborative work across disciplinary boundaries, with applications in Systems and Synthetic Biology. Students undertaking the course will gain hands-on experience in experimental Biology, modeling and designing. They will also enhance transversal capacities including planning a project, writing and defending a scientific report, interacting with a community, perceiving the industrial, economical and ethical issues associated with these developing fields.
