Overview
The focus of the Second Cycle Master’s Degree in Sustainable Industrial Pharmaceutical Biotechnology (SIPhaB) is on the industrial biotech-pharma sector, where Italy ranks first in Europe for export and production and first in the world for innovative contracts.
In order to keep the competitive advantage, a paradigmatic change is necessary in education, where crucial elements must be included on socio-environmental-economic sustainability as well as on the deep digital transformation of Health and Industry 4.0.
SIPhaB is a unique novel educational programme conjugating bio-chemical with management and sustainable development knowledge. To effectively conjugate know and know how we have co-designed SIPhaB with humanistic and economic departments and with our industrial partners.
