Learning Outcomes

One of the main characteristics of MIB is how it allows students to choose their curricular units and, in this way, mold their academic path within the Course, according to their scientific objectives and ambitions. In addition to the courses considered to be structural and transversal to all MIB specialization areas, at the start of the course, students that want to specialize in Neurobiology must register in the NB010 curricular unit. To complete this curricular unit the student will select specialized advanced courses that will allow them to acquire competences and knowledge in the Neurobiology field, which will serve as the foundation to carry out a high merit scientific and technical masters dissertation.
