Master thesis
El Trabajo de Fin de Máster supone la realización por parte del estudiante de un proyecto, memoria o estudio, en el que aplique y desarrolle los conocimientos adquiridos en el seno del Máster en Investigación Biomédica. El Trabajo deberá estar orientado a la aplicación de las competencias generales asociadas a la titulación y será realizado bajo la supervisión del tutor/a asignado.
El Trabajo de Fin de Máster consistirá en la elaboración de un documento donde se describan las actividades realizadas en el laboratorio en el caso de trabajos experimentales, o que cumpla los objetivos marcados en la propuesta de trabajo en el caso de trabajos teóricos. Además de presentar este documento, el alumno lo defenderá ante un tribunal.
En él el alumno aplicará de forma más práctica los conocimientos, habilidades y actitudes adquiridos en el resto del máster. En una mayoría de casos esta aplicación será en uno de los laboratorios de investigación que podrán ofertar plazas. Sin embargo, existe también la posibilidad de realizar el trabajo como un proyecto más teórico donde también se aplicarán los conocimientos previos para casos que así lo aconseje la situación y expectativas del alumno. Esta será una opción minoritaria, pero posible teniendo en cuenta que algunos alumnos podrán cursar el máster sin la intención de trabajar físicamente en un laboratorio, y sobre todo que muchos alumnos entrarán en un programa de doctorado al acabar el máster, y ahí su tarea principal será precisamente trabajar en un laboratorio resolviendo problemas reales de investigación biomédica desde un punto de vista experimental.
La Comisión del Máster coordinará y supervisará el proceso de realización de los Trabajos de Fin de Máster, velando por la calidad, la adecuación a los créditos ECTS establecidos para esta materia en el Plan de Estudios y la homogeneidad en el nivel de exigencia aplicado en la evaluación de los estudiantes. La Comisión del Máster establecerá las directrices para la asignación a los estudiantes del tutor/a y del tema del Trabajo de Fin de Máster, y garantizará la asignación individual a cada estudiante del tutor/a y del tema. La asignación del tutor/a y del tema deberá producirse al menos cuatro meses antes de la finalización del plazo de presentación de los Trabajos de Fin de Máster, y en todo caso,antes del 1 de Febrero del año académico en el que se ha producido la matrícula.
