3rd year: internship at business (4 ECTS credit)
Students will obtain 4 ECTS credit by doing a mandatory internship at business in the summer of 3rd year. These internships can be carried out either in companies outside the university environment or in Departments of the University. In these internships, students will put the knowledge acquired during the first three years at the service of the business or Departments of research.

4th course: Data Camp in Boston (2 ECTS credit)
At the end of the 4th year, students will go on a professional trip of approximately one week to carry out a Data Camp with biotech companies mainly. This week will serve to familiarize students to work with data real companies, to analyze them, to draw conclusions, and to close the week sharing the decisions taken after data analysis.

The financial costs of the stay and trips scheduled on diploma are included in the amount of the credit.
