Savinkova Elena Vladimirovna, Russia
In 2022, I graduated from the Master's program "Biology" in the profile "Innovative medicines", which is implemented jointly with the University of Franche Comté France. I spent one year in Russia, and the second year of study in France at the University of Burgundy. I had a serious motivation: such a two–degree program gave me the opportunity to study with the best teachers, use the experience and resources of two universities at once, and complete internships in two laboratories - in Russia and in France.Initially, I enrolled in another master's program at Sechenov University. There was no doubt about choosing a university, but I found out about the Biology program in the "Innovative Medicines" profile, thanks to which I could study in France for a year, after enrollment. I was lucky, as a result, I transferred to this program, as it seemed to me more interesting and promising, although difficult. But I had a serious motivation: such a two–degree program gave me the opportunity to study with the best teachers, use the experience and resources of two universities at once, complete internships in two laboratories - in Russia and in France.Thanks to the training, I was able to expand my knowledge, acquire practical skills in demand on the labor market and get acquainted with another culture. Such experience is a huge plus to your resume.

I was enrolled in masters of innovative drugs program in 2020 which gave me an intensive knowledge in molecular and functional imaging, molecular biology, pharmaceutical chemistry and scientific project management. As I graduated from Sechenov, I practiced as a medical laboratory scientist in my home country, Ghana. In Ghana, having a masters degree means an opportunity for second cycle tutorship. Even though I did not practice as a tutor, I applied my knowledge in solving clinical issues since I worked at the hospital. This programme exposed me to astute knowledge in high paper liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. The concentration of drugs in patients blood were analyzed and the effects were learnt. Personally, I joined in team-working, developed good personal relationships with professors and my project supervisor. I also had the opportunity to work in a research company during my research project. I had a great experience at Sechenov and will recommend all to apply. I chose Russia, specifically sechenov because I read the university is one of the outstanding medical universities that offer intensive clinical and practical training to students. The school has the best infrastructure to support students education. Their graduation ceremony is the best and professors are always available to assist students. There are scholarship opportunities of which I am a beneficiary. Cost of living is minimal and it is easy to live in the dormitory as a foreigner. Sechenov has great values to offer career-wise and personally.

I want to devote myself to science — a master's degree will allow me to improve my research skills," she said.— A diploma from Sechenov University will give me access to higher-paying jobs in academic, teaching and industrial circles.I knew from childhood that I wanted to contribute to the development of drugs that would improve people's quality of life. I plan to work in the field of pharmaceutical biotechnology. I went to Sechenov University to study biotechnological methods, expand my knowledge in the field of cell biology, and also learn how to develop and manage projects.I chose Russia because historically it has always been distinguished by a high scientific level, and in recent decades it has been actively developing technologically and scientifically. Education in Russia is one of the best in the world. And, unlike other countries, education and the cost of living are more affordable here. The Master's program at Sechenov University seemed to me the most interesting and complete. In addition, there is a great opportunity to work in well-equipped laboratories, on significant projects and with scientists who are very important to our industry. I was also attracted by internships in Russian pharmaceutical companies and in research centers in other countries.

The Master's degree program in the field of "Innovative drugs" gave me the opportunity to get a comprehensive understanding of the development of modern biological drugs. The course contained the basics of all disciplines that accompany the work on the appearance of LP, starting with the search for a target in the body, ending with preclinical testing and planning for scaling production. A wide range of bases for practice in and outside the institute allowed you to choose the appropriate one for your knowledge and interests. In my work, this helped me to increase my expertise in long-term planning for the introduction of new drugs to the market, taking into account the nuances of their development.
