Master's in Medicinal and Bioorganic Chemistry                                                

The Master’s in Medicinal and Bioorganic Chemistry  aligns with local educational coherence, offering a suitable continuation for graduates of the chemistry-biology bachelor’s program that has been in place for several years. Additionally, it provides opportunities for theses in organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, or therapeutic research within the laboratories of the Institute of Chemistry in Nice or elsewhere.

Expanding upon a solid grounding in organic chemistry, as an MedBioChem student, you will develop skills at the intersection of chemistry and biology. This will prepare you to undertake a thesis in medicinal or bioorganic chemistry, or to pursue roles as a researcher or project manager within the pharmaceutical industry.
