The Master’s Degree in Medicine and Surgery aims to provide the scientific foundations, theoretical and practical training, and professional and decision-making autonomy essential for the practice of the medical profession.

To achieve this goal, the program is designed to equip students with the necessary tools to:

• Understand the close correlations between basic disciplines (biochemistry, genetics, anatomy, physiology) that explain the functioning of cells and tissues, and clinical disciplines. The ability to integrate knowledge from basic sciences and clinical sciences enables the development of a holistic approach to patient care, preparing professionals to assess and address individual health conditions and resolve health issues responsibly.

• Develop self-directed learning skills for ongoing professional development, enabling students to study independently beyond the scope of the formal curriculum.

• Identify the moral and ethical principles and legal responsibilities of the medical profession.

• Communicate clearly and unambiguously with patients and colleagues.

• Interact effectively with other healthcare professionals involved in patient care.

These objectives are achieved through a comprehensive educational pathway that includes lectures, seminars, supervised internships in laboratories and clinical wards, as well as tutorial support and elective activities for students to deepen specific knowledge.
