Objectives & Competences

We offer you a comprehensive education both at a research and a business level, which will allow you to acquire competences that are specific to the fields of biology and medicine.

The international nature of this bachelor's degree programme will prepare you for work anywhere in the world.

It will provide you with the tools to be able to participate in the value chain that is necessary to offer the products, treatments or technology that will benefit patient’s health. We will also work on tools for professional development that will help you join the labor market once your studies are complete.

Our course will teach you to know and have control over the bioinformatic tools that will allow you to manage the large volume of data generated nowadays, as well as undertake experiments in healthcare projects.

The practical classes are just as important as the theory classes so you can receive a full education. For that reason, you’ll have the opportunity to undertake work experience in cutting-edge research centers at both a national and an international level, as well as in prestigious biomedical companies.

You will learn to acquire a grounding in the molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms you need to transfer knowledge of research to the causes of pathologies and develop tools to study, diagnose and treat them.
