Description:
S-DISCO is a 2-year study program aimed at developing a transdisciplinary Master's by intertwining a series of pharmaceutical disciplines, environmental topics, and socio-economic issues.
The project takes into account the impact of the pharmaceutical industry on the environment and global society, emphasizing the theme of sustainability throughout the entire lifecycle of a drug.
It is jointly developed by 4 complementary European universities (Ghent University, University of Lille, Medical University of Gdańsk, and University of Groningen) and supported by international experts from relevant industry and (academic) institutions to ensure a unique global excellence and attractiveness.
A clear mobility path is proposed, giving students the opportunity to study and acquire specific skills at the different partner universities.
