Innovative master’s programme
State-of-the-art, meeting the employers' needs in the bioeconomy sector
Bioceb is a 2-year joint master's programme, offering a state-of-the-art and innovative curriculum, training future research and innovation managers to tackle the challenges related to the deployment of the bioeconomy across the world.
A vision based on a sustainable use of biological resources
Bioceb vision of the bioeconomy is based on the sustainable use of biological resources, preserving biodiversity and favouring circular economy systems. It offers students with backgrounds in biology-related disciplines the opportunity to specialise in one field of biotechnologies while developing the ability to implement systemic value chain approaches. The three pillars of Bioceb training in biotechnology are:
- biological resource diversity and optimal use,
- bioprocess design and upscaling, and
- biobased products engineering for targeted markets.
An interdisciplinary and intercultural approach
Bioceb addresses the needs of the growing bio-based industry sector in scientists being aware of the markets and socio-economic contexts. It arises from an interdisciplinary approach combining chemistry, biology, economic and environmental sciences with cross-cutting skills: project management, intercultural approach, adaptability, teamwork, leadership… and activities designed to enhance self-confidence and assertiveness. Its modular construction promotes a cultural mix between students from different regions of the world and with various educational backgrounds.
