Programme objectives:
Students enrolled in the master’s programme in Biomaterials have the opportunity to learn a large variety of topics closely related to the field and to become acquainted with the most recent scientific discoveries.
The course is designed to train students and provide them with basic skills required for a career in research (hospitals, biomaterial science divisions, industrial units, biophysics departments) as well as to enable them to solve modern scientific problems specific to the area of biomaterials. Also, the master’s programme aims at offering the opportunity for further studies leading to a PhD degree.
Course aimed at: graduates in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Engineering; graduates of other departments with fundamental knowledge in physics and biology are also welcome.
Partner universities: European partners within the Erasmus programme.
Type of master’s programme: scientific.
The master studies represent the second cycle of the university studies. The MA programmes enable the students to further their research into a specific domain and they prepare the way towards their applying for the doctoral programmes. A master's degree corresponds to a two-year postgraduate program (120 ECTS credits, 30 ECTS in each semester). The curriculum of a master´s programme provides 14-16 hours a week. There are 4-6 disciplines in each semester.
Core disciplines:
Biotechnologies; Biomaterials and Bio-Nanostructures; Surface Techniques on Biomaterials; Resonance Methods with Biomedical Applications; Molecular and Cell Biophysics; Bioelectrochemistry; Biomaterials in Osteoarticular and Maxillofacial Surgery; Modelling Methods for Biomolecular Systems. Throughout the course students are required to undertake one semester of research work at Babes-Bolyai University or abroad.
Thesis
The completion of master studies assumes a dissertation corresponding to 20 credits, beyond the 120 credits of the curriculum.
