“The FCT’s master in Biotechnology is, in my opinion, an excellent tool for those who dream about a career in Biotechnology, either this dream is to be a great researcher, to occupy a place in industry or perform any other job in biotech‘s field. 

The different biotechnology areas approached in the master program and its flexibility makes possible that each one can adapt it in order to pursue their own interests. For me, it was the opportunity to be part of an international project with great researchers, and to present the results at an international meeting. At same time, it contributed for my personal growth, developing skills such as tolerance, communication and, of course, team spirit! More than that… thought me to never give up!

Recently I joined Mecwins, a biotechnology company located in Tres Cantos, Madrid. I will be always learning but I don’t have any doubt that all the knowledge I achieved from the master was crucial for this new challenge!”
