The Erasmus Mundus Joint Master course « Advanced Spectroscopy in Chemistry (ASC) » is a two year (120 ECTS) programme within 5 European universities: University Alma Mater of Bologna, Italy; University of Helsinki, Finland; Jagiellonian University of Krakow, Poland; University of Leipzig, Germany; University Lille1, France (Coordinating institution), providing students with a cross-cultural education while getting acquainted with state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques in a broad range of applications. The Programme will provide students with the expertise needed for a modern chemistry and prepare them for positions in various professional areas, such as spectroscopic and analytical laboratories, manufacturers, and for research and management positions in chemical companies and enterprises. The programme is based on a mandatory mobility and releases a multiple degree. Several EC grants are available. Erasmus Mundus granted students have an obligation to study full-time.... [-]

Advanced Cosmetic Sciences (ACS) forms chemists that can operate in cosmetic companies in the design, production, analysis and certification of cosmetic products.

This Second Cycle Degree Programme trains professionals able to grasp the emerging challenges arising from the current international regulations and aimed at the production of more effective and intrinsically safer cosmetics with reference to their entire life cycle.

ACS has an interdisciplinary spirit, aimed at providing a theoretical and practical training on the scientific and technological aspects of cosmetic products. The programme is characterized by theoretical-practical courses related to the study of natural substances and of bioactive molecules used in cosmetics, to the chemistry and to the formulation of cosmetics, to the ingredients and formulations analysis. The anatomy, physiology and pathology of the skin will also be studied, together with the microbiological, functional and toxicological control of cosmetic products.... [-]
