The aim of the course is to provide students with the appropriate knowledge and skills in the field of biopharmaceutic and formulation development of biotech formulations
Prerequisiti
Basic notions of organic chemistry, analytical chemistry and preliminary knowledge in the field of the design and development formulations
Metodi didattici
Teaching is based on lectures. Students will be involved in group work. Power Point presentations are used for the lectures, provided to students in the section dedicated to teaching on the KIRO platform.
"For students with specific needs, who are unable to attend educational activities in person and who have applied for Inclusive Educational Methods, appropriate study materials will be made available for effective self-study. If requested, self-learning can be supported by tutoring activities or supplementary teaching, and by dedicated meetings, including online ones, with flexible scheduling according to the students' needs"
Verifica Apprendimento
The exam consists of a written test composed of THREE OPEN QUESTIONS relating to biopharmaceuticals and the formulation of biotechnological drugs.
Exam dates will be published on the DDS website.
Attendance is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended, as the lessons are interactive and engaging. The final grade is calculated as follows: 10% for group work, 10% for course participation and attendance, and 80% for the final exam.
