To enable students to acquire all the concepts in immunohaematology and transfusion practice necessary for the organization of a transfusion centre and a hospital blood bank, to lead the transfusion committee and to improve transfusion safety for patients.

The programme, which comprises a minimum of 300 hours of theoretical courses and practical work, lasts a minimum of one year and a maximum of three years. It is possible to defer, providing the request is made with the initial application.

The teaching, both theoretical courses and supervised work, takes the form of modules. Each module has a special topic and is held over a week for the 30 hour modules or half a week for the 15 hour ones. Each module is supervised by a coordinator and taught in their university.

Students must take the 10 compulsory modules : this represents 225 hours. They must bring this up to 300 hours with optional modules or practical work.

This Advanced Master responds to special training needs arising from the cooperation and development programme. It is an inter-university programme, in partnership with the three Academies and with the participation of the Belgian Red Cross.

Masters in medicine, in pharmacy, in biomedical sciences (120 credits) or in public health

Ouverture aux adultes

The teaching, seminars and practical work bring together courses which are necessary in understanding the bases of immunological mechanisms involving transfusion and special courses in transfusion practice. Practical work enables students to gain real experience.
Placements are undertaken in the transfusion centres of the Blood Service of the Red Cross and/or in the blood banks of the University Hospital. There is no limit on the number of placements : this allows students from developing countries to take part in the activities of transfusion centres. For certain students, the type of placement may have already been decided by the authorities in their country.

There will be an examination on the theory held after each module in accordance with arrangements recommended by the coordinator and with the current regulations. Practical work is assessed by the relevant placement director.
