In addition to sending the application to Infostud, graduates from Universities other than Sapienza have to send to the following documentation the Student Secretarial Office of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Medicine (segrstudenti.medicina@uniroma1.it): self-certification regarding the degree obtained (or to be completed) including the list of exams taken and the scientific fields corresponding to the courses, together with a copy of an identity document.

Students are requested to specify in their email subject "Verification of CLM Biotechnology Medical Requirements". Should applicants fail to send this documentation, their verification request will not be taken into consideration.

As specified in the Course Regulations, admission to CLM in Medical Biotechnology is subject to possession of pre-determined curricular requirements and a verification of personal preparation.

Curricular requirements:

The integrative exams can be chosen between the courses related to the SSDs in question, from any programme of the University (neither the secretarial office, nor the teachers of the CdS, have a predefined list of integrative exams which can be taken).

Personal preparation:

For graduates in universities other than Sapienza and for Sapienza graduates in degree classes other than those indicated in the curricular requirements for admission, in addition to the evaluation of their curriculum, there will be an assessment of their personal preparation regarding the main disciplines related to medical biotechnology.

This assessment is carried out by a committee of professors, in the form of a written test consisting of 60 multiple choice questions on basic subjects in the field of Medical Biotechnologies (Biochemistry, Chemistry and Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, Histology, Anatomy, Microbiology, Pathology and Immunology).

To pass the test, you must answer at least 50% of the questions correctly.

All candidates must have an appropriate level of English, which will also be assessed (at least B2 level is required), through an interview based on the reading and translation of a scientific text or article. Candidates with a B2 level certificate in English can submit this certification to the committee on the day of the assessment.

Written tests and interviews in English will take place on the following dates and times:

- September 19, 2018 (2.00 pm, Carlo Conti Chamber of the V Medical Clinic, 1st floor - Policlinico Umberto I). For candidates who have submitted their application and the documentation relating to their academic qualification achieved by September 14th.
