Objectives In this licentiate degree we aim to receive students that are determined to pursue careers in the various areas of public service where biologists are increasingly called to intervene. We do not intend to train highly specialized technicians that are extremely knowledgeable about one restricted area in Biology but have an exceedingly vague knowledge of the complete background that frames its know-how. We intend to train real biologists. We expect to turn out professionals who will feel at home within the organization of the living world, who have the benefit of firm and well-grounded foundations, and who are fully prepared to pursue their postgraduate studies, as well as establish a direct connection with the labour market. Knowledge, abilities and skills to be acquired The licentiate degree aims to furnish its students with: The ability to manage and conserve living resources; Integrated knowledge concerning ecological and environmental issues; Skills pertaining to the collection and observation of biological data in its natural environment; skills in developing programmes to disseminate and conduct research in experimental science; The ability to develop laboratory work in the field of biochemistry and health sciences; The ability to maintain and manipulate cells and genetically modified organisms; the main techniques pertaining to genetics and molecular biology; Expansion of the ability to interpret and analyze biological data, as well as make use of computing tools during simulation processes; The ability to undertake autonomous research and development studies and projects; The ability to engage in multidisciplinary groups of decision; The ability to carry out the practical implementation of the knowledge acquired in the resolution of problems. Career We hope that the foundations obtained by our graduated students will allow them to achieve an activity of higher quality and greater depth. There is a widening array of circumstances where it is becoming imperative to hear the voice and perspective of a biologist. Biology may be the most transversal science area and the professional challenges and opportunities are plenty. Our professional biologists are increasingly integrated in multidisciplinary teams and may provide a great contribution, from basic research to biotechnology, from clinical investigation to teaching, from environment protection and Nature conservation to scientific illustration, from the collaboration in the monumental responsability of bioethics to the analysis of impacts of human activities, from the sensitive issue of resource exploration and measurement of the parameters of the quality of life to bio-entrepreneurship. Entrance Conditions Candidates who meet the requirements defined in the International Student Statute can apply.
