Description
The holder of this Badge has obtained the BSc in Scienze Biologiche - Biological Sciences at the University of Milano-Bicocca. Lectures are in Italian. The BSc in Scienze Biologiche - Biological Sciences offers training in basic disciplines necessary to have an adequate comprehension of strictly biological topics. The latter are taught in the second part of the degree course. Students can choose between a Bioecological major or a Physio-molecular one. The program includes courses in Maths, Statistics, Physics, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Ecology, Cytology and Anatomy, Genetics, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Physiology, Pharmacology, Immunology.

Badge Criteria
The holder of this Badge has obtained the BSc in Scienze Biologiche - Biological Sciences (180 ECTS) at the University of Milano-Bicocca. The Program Structure is available at this link. In order to obtain this degree, a student must enrol and complete the corresponding study program at the University of Milano-Bicocca. Once students complete the activities, ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) credits are awarded. The ECTS is a credit system for higher education that allows comparison of study attainments of students across the European Union (in Italy, 1 ECTS credit=25 work or study hours). ECTS credits are awarded to students when they successfully complete learning activities, usually as follows: 1. regarding the taught courses, students must pass a final exam (written, oral, or both written and oral), achieving a mark equal to or higher than 18/30; 2. regarding internships and practical exercises, students must attend the majority of the course compulsorily (in general 70% of the total time) and must obtain a "pass" grade from the teacher (or from the tutor, or the supervisor); 3. regarding workshops and fieldwork, students must: in certain cases, pass a final exam (written, oral, or both written and oral), achieving a mark equal to or higher than 18/30, or, in other cases, attend the majority of the module/course compulsorily (in general 70% of the total time) and obtain a "pass" grade from the teacher (or from the tutor, or the supervisor); 4. students must prepare and discuss in open debate a dissertation on a chosen topic, derived from the scientific literature. The final degree grade depends on: 1. the weighted average of all grades obtained for all the learning activities, weighted by their ECTS credits; 2. the quality of the extended essay.
Skills
The BSc in Scienze Biologiche - Biological Sciences provides graduates with a solid cultural background with regard to the multidisciplinary aspects necessary to understand the biological processes both at the molecular, cellular, organism and ecosystem level. Graduates in Scienze Biologiche - Biological Sciences: are capable of dealing with issues related to: a Bioecological major or a Physio-molecular one. The first one is more focused on studying and evaluating the environment; the second one on biomolecular and medical applications; will develop careers as Agronomist technician, Forest technician, Zoologist, Graduate biochemistry technician, Graduate food technician, Graduate veterinarian technician; have professional opportunities in Universities and other public and private research institutes, Labs for analysis and control in the biomedical, pharmaceutical, biotechnological, zoo technical, agro-food, fish and gardening sectors; in the public and private medical and environmental sectors; in the professional studies for the evaluation of environmental impact and preservation; in the public and private companies for the classification, management and use of living organisms; have acquired the fundamentals for undertaking postgraduate studies in disciplines related to life sciences.
