Training description

(*) A field consists of courses from both Semester 1 and Semester 2

The indicated ECTS reflect the relative weighting of each course within the field.

A field is considered validated if the overall average is 10/20 or higher, with no individual course unit grade below 8/20.
Compensation is possible within a field across both semesters, but not between different fields

Field 1 = BIOLOGY / BIOTECHNOLOGY
Field 2 = CHEMISTRY / BIOCHEMISTRY
Field 3 = TRANSVERSAL SKILLS
Field 4 = PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE / COMMUNICATION

Year 1: Building a Strong Scientific Foundation
Students receive comprehensive training in core scientific principles and essential methodological tools, ensuring a smooth transition into higher education.

Year 2: Immersive Laboratory Experience
With nearly 50% of the year dedicated to practical work, students develop critical laboratory skills and gain real-world experience in life science techniques.

Year 3: Specialization & Research-Based Learning
The final year focuses on advanced learning through research and entrepreneurial projects, providing students with the necessary skills to secure a job or continue their studies.
