Bachelor's Double Degree in Biotechnology + Chemistry

The double degree in Biotechnology + Chemistry aims to train professionals with a solid academic background that integrates Chemistry with chemical and pharmaceutical Biotechnology, capable of researching, innovating, developing and improving processes. The knowledge and professional skills of the two degrees are acquired in five years, instead of the eight years that would be required for the two separate degrees.

The UPV's Biotechnology degree is ranked number 1 in Spain and the demand for chemistry graduates by industry is very high, with more than 600 companies in the sector.

The employment generated in the chemical and biotechnological industry sectors is of high quality in terms of salary and stability. The industrial orientation aims to train the graduate to respond to the problems of the manufacturing process, in the fields of the pharmaceutical industry and its biotechnological development, health, food and energy. His solid training will allow the student to integrate in the research of universities and public and private research centers.

Biotechnology and Chemistry are disciplines with a high degree of internationalization and mobility. Many prestigious foreign universities offer these studies and exchange programs (Erasmus and others similar) allow the realization of stays and exchanges. In addition, ETSIAMN makes easier internships in companies and institutions, sending each year around 650 students to 300 companies from different sectors.

This double degree allows students to continue their studies in different areas of Chemistry and Biotechnology by accessing university master's degrees such as: Green Chemistry, Plant Molecular and Cellular Biotechnology, Oenology, Animal Genetics and Breeding, and Reproductive Biotechnology. In addition, it is possible to access any university master's degree at the UPV by taking the appropriate leveling courses.
