ENTRY QUALIFICATION: a first-cycle degree (bachelor's / three-year Laurea Triennale or university diploma) obtained in Italy (DM 509 or DM 270) or an equivalent qualification obtained abroad and recognised as suitable under current legislation. apply.unito.it: 'You must hold a first-cycle degree (i.e. bachelor's degree) gained after at least 3 years of University education.' Candidates not yet holding the bachelor's degree at the date of application are accepted ('We accept also candidates not yet holding a Bachelor Degree at the date of application'); Italian candidates about to graduate self-certify their enrolment plus passed exams. Eligibility of foreign qualifications is decided by the Degree Course Council in compliance with international agreements. MINIMUM CURRICULAR CREDIT REQUIREMENTS (Didactic Regulation Art. 3 para 2) - automatically satisfied by holders of an Italian L-2 / class 1 Biotechnology bachelor's; all other candidates must document: 1. MAT/01-MAT/09, FIS/01-FIS/08, INF/01, MED/01, SECS-S/01, SECS-S/02: 10 ECTS 2. CHIM/01, CHIM/02, CHIM/03, CHIM/06: 10 ECTS 3. BIO/01, BIO/10, BIO/11, BIO/13, BIO/17, BIO/18, BIO/19: 10 ECTS 4. AGR/07, BIO/09, BIO/10, BIO/11, BIO/14, BIO/16, BIO/18, CHIM/06, CHIM/11, MED/04, MED/42: 24 ECTS Credits of a sector already counted in one field cannot be reused for the same sector in another field. A tolerance of up to 10%, i.e. 5 ECTS, is allowed, applied to one or several of the SSD groups. EQUIVALENT FORMULATION FOR INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS (apply.unito.it): applicants must 'demonstrate a suitable academic preparation and a solid background certified by at least 8 exams passed in the following subjects: Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, General and Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology and Genetics.' IF CURRICULAR REQUIREMENTS ARE MISSING: 'the candidate ... may possibly enroll in individual courses offered by the University and must successfully complete the relevant assessment before enrolling in the master's degree' (Art. 3 para 4). Enrolment with educational deficiencies ('debiti formativi') is NOT possible. ADEQUATE PERSONAL PREPARATION: verified by the online written test described in entry_exam_or_test, with the 99/110 exemption. QUOTA: no overall numerus clausus (open access). The only published cap is territorial: apply.unito.it - 'This degree program has 50 available places for non-European applicants residing abroad.' No EU sub-quota and no total intake figure is published. STRUCTURE: 2 years, at least 120 ECTS, not divided into curricula; full-time or part-time enrolment possible.

Dil yeterliliği

ENGLISH - minimum CEFR B2, required of all applicants because the degree is delivered entirely in English. Didactic Regulation Art. 3 para 2: 'Since the course will be delivered in English, it will be necessary to document an English proficiency corresponding to the B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for the knowledge of languages, or higher.' ACCEPTED CERTIFICATES AND MINIMUM SCORES (apply.unito.it, a.y. 2026/27) - 'Applicants must hold an international certification ... certifying at least a CEFR B2 level of English language proficiency. Language certification must be no more than three years old.': - Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE) - Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English (CAE) - Cambridge First Certificate of English (FCE) - minimum score 173 (grade B) - PTE Academic - minimum score 65 - IELTS - minimum 5.5 out of 9, with no component lower than 5.5 - TOEFL iBT - minimum 69 out of 120, with no component lower than 17 - Trinity College ISE II EXEMPTION / ALTERNATIVE: 'Alternatively, it is acceptable to provide a declaration from the University of origin, certifying that the study program was carried out entirely in English.' Italian-qualification candidates applying via MyUniTo satisfy the requirement by self-certification: 'a self-certification attesting basic computer skills and a minimum B2 English language level under the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)'. ITALIAN - NOT an admission requirement (no Italian certificate is requested at application by either channel). However, the Didactic Regulation contains an in-course clause: 'Students who do not have a level of knowledge of the Italian language of level B2 or higher will have to adapt their language skills up to this level, using the ECTS specifically provided for in the table of training activities ... pursuant to art. 10, paragraph 5, letter d).' The Italian original confirms this refers to the Italian language, so enrolled students below Italian B2 are expected to take the dedicated language ECTS during the programme. The programme also runs a 'Learning Italian' support page. [uncertain - whether this Italian-language clause is enforced in practice; it does not appear on apply.unito.it and may be standard regulation boilerplate]Tümünü okuDaralt

Sınav / değerlendirme

YES - a written admission test taken online, used to verify 'adequate personal preparation'. apply.unito.it (a.y. 2026/27): 'Personal preparation of the candidates will be verified by a written test (held via web).' Didactic Regulation Art. 3 para 3: 'The adequacy of personal preparation will be verified by passing a written test that will evaluate the possession of strong notions of Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Genetics, Anatomy, Physiology / Pathophysiology on the basis of the Programs indicated on the Degree Course website ... The latter will take place in remote modality, upon notice on the Master's Degree Course website, in the presence of the Examination Committee; it will not be allowed to take the test to verify the adequacy of personal preparation more than once for each academic year.' TEST FORMAT (programme 'Test' page): 60 multiple-choice questions covering Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Genetics, Anatomy, Physiology, drawn from a published Syllabus; four options per question, only ONE answer allowed, equal marks, no negative marking, total time 60 minutes; a positive score of at least 60% is required for enrolment. The test is run online on UNITO's Moodle platform, and detailed instructions are e-mailed personally to each candidate at the address given in the pre-registration form. EXEMPTION: graduates in the Italian classes L-2 (Biotechnology, DM 270) or class 1 (Biotechnology, DM 509) and L-13 (Biological Sciences) or class L2 (Biology, DM 509), AND graduates of other degree courses who hold the curricular requirements, are exempt from the test if their final degree mark is at least 99/110. The 'How to apply' page (last update 27/08/2025) states this more broadly: 'Graduates in possession of the curricular requirements who have achieved a degree grade of at least 99/110 are exempt from the test.' No interview is used as the standard selection instrument, although Art. 3 para 4 refers to an 'interview aimed at verifying the adequacy of personal preparation' for candidates admitted after completing missing single courses. Test dates are announced on the programme website and are tied to application batches; the 2026/27 dates were not readable on any accessible official page. [uncertain - current test dates and whether the exemption wording of 2025 fully supersedes the narrower class-based wording]Tümünü okuDaralt
