The Master's Degree in Laboratory Techniques in Biopathology combines specialized knowledge with the resolution of real-world health problems.

Cytopathology, Histopathology, or Molecular Pathology: which will be your focus?

The Master's Degree in Laboratory Techniques in Biopathology (MTLB) allows you to acquire specialized knowledge for innovation, reflection, and research in laboratory areas, particularly in Anatomical Pathology. The course develops essential skills for solving complex problems in clinical practice, promoting excellence in the areas of Cytopathology, Histopathology, and Molecular Pathology. Upon application, students choose one of these three areas of specialization, adapting the study plan to their professional and scientific interests. In the second year, knowledge is consolidated practically through an internship or dissertation in the chosen area of ??specialization, ensuring a highly rigorous technical and scientific education.
