SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE
The goal of this training complement is to prepare students with the necessary skills and knowledge to be able to develop their professional and research degree program in an increasingly global market.
INSTRUCTIONS
The deepening of specific contents, the reinforcement of communication skills in English language and the facilitation of international experiences are the instructions of the International Science Program offered by the School of Sciences.
WORK END OF DEGREE
This program involves taking all the subjects offered in English in this language and writing and defending the work Fin de Degree (TFG) in that language language. In addition, students will have the possibility of doing an internship in business abroad. It does not imply more credits added to those of the Degree.
Admission
It is requested at the same time as admission to Degree.
At test for admission, the student will have to take a test English level test. To be admitted to the ISP the level obtained must be at least B2 or equivalent. An official certificate can also be submitted.
The student can leave the ISP at any time, before formalizing the enrollment or during the years of degree program.
Enrollment
The student should be enrolled in the Program from the 1st of degree program. A special group (ISP) will be created for students taking the program.
For this purpose, at apply for the admission the future student will find the following options:
→ Degree in Biology + ISP
→ Degree at Biochemistry + ISP
→ Degree at Chemistry + ISP
→ Degree in CAAC + ISP
→ Degree in Biology - CCAA + ISP
→ Degree at Chemistry - Biochemistry + ISP
If the student chooses one of the options that includes the International Science Program, the result of the admission test will determine if he/she can take it or if he/she must choose another option.
Successful completion of this programme will be recorded on the transcript of student and on the European Diploma Supplement of the corresponding Degree .
