What will you learn?

The School of Sciences of the University of Navarra works closely with the Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy, and other research centres of the University, such as the Centre for Applied Medical Research (CIMA), the laboratory Integrated Environmental Quality (LICA), the Centre for Applied Pharmacobiology (CIFA), the Scientific and Technological Institute (ICT), etc. This has led to the creation of a university campus specialising in Experimental and Health Sciences that is unique in Spain.

The optional subjects allow the student of the Degree in Biology to personalise their degree and train more intensively in a specific area, which facilitates their insertion into the world of work. Thus, the student can acquire an intensification in some of the most demanded areas in the field of Biology.

The students of Degree in Biology have the possibility to participate in a specific training programme in English which, under the supervision of a tutor, allows, for example, to carry out a project experimental research in Biology within the Degree, which must be prepared and defended before an examining board entirely in English.

In addition to seminars, tutorials, professor and bibliographic material, student has several subjects taught in English throughout the Degree in Biology.
