Advanced Master in Clinical Biology [300.0]

AnnéesTravail de fin d'étude


Retour en début de pageStudy objectives

This complementary master's programme aims to prepare doctors to be recognised holders of the particular professional title of specialist doctor in Clinical Biology (Ministerial decree of the 15.09.1979, published on 26.09.1979, modified by the Ministerial decree of 26.04.1982, 03.09.1984 and 07.03.1985).

Retour en début de pageGeneral presentation of the programme

The training course includes full time apprenticeships in recognised services and teaching centres and lasts for at least five years. The apprenticeship project established by the university promoter must be approved by the ministerial validation committee for the speciality. These periods of practical training include being on call. Candidates have the choice between 4 orientations :
• Medical Biochemistry
• Microbiology
• Haematological Biology
• Polyvalent Clinical Biology
The first part (2 years) is common to the four orientations.

Admission

See the general admission requirements

Specific procedures :

Admission conditions
• The applicant must hold the degree title of Doctor in Medecine or be a Doctor from a member country of the European Union authorising medical practice in Belgium.
• The applicant must be in possession of a document attesting that, at the end of the selection exams, he was retained as a specialist candidate in Clinical Biology, in a Belgian medical faculty.
• The entrance exam includes the evaluation of the study curriculum, compulsory work experience periods (2 months minimum) in Clinical Biology as well as an exam focussing on the three subject areas : medical biochemistry, microbiology and haematological biology.

The juridical context and practical procedures regarding these selection tests can be obtained from the secretary's office. Degree holders from outside the European Union are only allowed to register on the programme in the context of procuring a university certificate for partially specialised training for the duration of two years (if they are in the process of doing a specialisation in their country of origin) or for an in-depth specialised training course for the duration of one year (if they are already recognised as specialists in their own country).

The Royal Decree of the 30.05.2002, relating to the planning of the medical offer published on the 14.06.2002, applies to those candidates wishing to obtain the title of specialist doctor in Clinical Biology (those candidates are thus counted among the general practitioner candidates or specialists in the context of the numerus clausus).

Admission procedures
Applications for admission must be addressed to the academic supervisor. The organisation of the entrance selection tests is arranged in accordance with the calendar and the general examination rules and regulations.

Evaluation
Presentation for the exam for compulsory courses at the end of the 2nd and 5th year. Presentation of a thesis based on a publication in an international magazine of which the candidate is the first author. The subject of the thesis must be approved by the Committee.

Further to the application of the Royal Decree of 16 March, 1999, after the first two years of studies, the candidate will receive an attestation proving he has successfully accomplished a specific university training programme. Upon fulfilment of the training requirements, described above, the teaching committee will award the academic title in Clinical Biology, specifying the orientation chosen.

This title does not replace official recognition by the ministerial validation committee. It attests the successful completion of an academic and scientific study programme in the context of specialised training leading to this validation.
