In the Master of Biomedical Sciences: Infectious and Tropical Diseases, you acquire a good understanding of various aspects of host-parasite interaction. You also learn to recognise patterns in the epidemiology of (tropical) diseases as well as to link them to ecological conditions. This way you learn to evaluate or propose strategies for disease control.
The programme does not focus on acquiring clinical skills, as this is covered in medicine and pharmacy. However, it prepares you to conduct technological or scientific research in a clinical context. You learn to describe and analyse a tropical, biomedical, scientific problem independently, to report on it and to propose solutions. This may contribute to product development in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry, for example vaccine research, drug screening and diagnostics.
During the second and third semester you can obtain a Laboratory Animal Science certificate (FELASA C) allowing you to perform or participate in animal experiments. The Project proposal and the Master’s thesis with Internship last 7 months and offer you the opportunity to participate in research projects in leading laboratories and institutes in Belgium or abroad.
