Objectives and competences

The Master's Degree in Biotechnology for the Bioeconomy includes two optional courses, one in the first semester and one in the second semester, making 10 ECTS. The intention is to allow students to follow curricular units that allow them to deepen or expand their knowledge (or skills developed) according to their interests. Thus, the curricular units chosen by each student can be directly linked to the themes of the course or entirely different. The choice of curricular units will be made with the support of the course coordinator.
