Erasmus Mundus master's degree in Bio and Pharmaceutical Materials Science (BIOPHAM)

Barcelona School of Telecommunications Engineering (ETSETB)

The Erasmus Mundus BIOPHAM master’s degree (master's degree website) is a two-year programme taught entirely in English. The aim of the programme is to meet international demand for qualified graduates with high-level theoretical and applied training in materials science, the physics and chemistry of materials and the application of these disciplines to pharmaceuticals. BIOPHAM was developed by a consortium of four renowned European universities, and it benefits from the involvement of an extensive international network of companies, large-scale facilities and associated universities.
