Master in CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

At Università degli Studi di Torino, the tuition fee is 3,271 USD per year.

Cellular and Molecular Biology is a master's program taught in English at Universita degli Studi di Torino in Torino, with a duration of two years. This discipline examines living organisms at the level of cells and the molecules that compose and regulate them, forming a core area of the biological sciences. Typical subjects include cell biology, molecular genetics, biochemistry, and the techniques used to study gene expression, protein function, and cellular processes. Students commonly study how cells communicate, divide, and respond to their environment, as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying development, disease, and aging. Laboratory-based methods form an important part of this field, including techniques for manipulating DNA and proteins, cell culture methods, and the use of microscopy and other tools to observe cellular structures and processes. Coursework often connects molecular and cellular findings to broader biological questions, such as how genetic mutations contribute to disease or how cells maintain stability in changing conditions. Because the discipline sits at the foundation of much of modern biomedical research, students develop skills in experimental design, data analysis, and scientific communication alongside their subject-specific knowledge. Graduates from this field pursue careers in biomedical and pharmaceutical research, biotechnology companies, diagnostic laboratories, and academic or public research institutions. Some continue into doctoral studies to specialize further in a particular area of cellular or molecular biology. Torino is home to a long-established university with programs across the sciences. Delivered in English, this program is intended for students seeking to build research-oriented expertise applicable in international scientific and biomedical settings after completing their studies.
