International Master of Science in Sustainable Drug Discovery
S-DISCO is a two-year Master programme, organised by four European universities: Ghent University, Medical University of Gdańsk, University of Lille and the University of Groningen. The programme focuses on drug discovery from a sustainability perspective.
All students jointly follow the Basics of Sustainable Drug Discovery during the first semester at Ghent University (UGent). In semester 2, the students jointly specialize in Molecular Modeling, Omics and Green Analytics at the Medical University of Gdansk (MUG). In semester 3 the students can choose between Sustainable Sources, Hit-to-lead, Target Validation (at the University of Lille - ULille) or Green chemistry, Lead-to-patient, Pharmacokinetics (at the University of Groningen - RUG). In each of these semesters, elective courses are followed (a suggestion of courses will be offered to the students). In semester 4, the students do research within an industrial or academic setting, resulting in a master’s thesis that will be defended.
Students enrol at Ghent University, the Coordinating Organization. Students additionally enrol for semester 2 at MUG, for semester 3 at ULille or RUG, and for semester 4 at the consortium partner university supervising the respective master thesis.
