A five-year double degree combining Marine Sciences and Marine Biotechnology that trains students in oceanography, aquaculture and the biotechnological use of marine organisms. Suited to learners seeking hands-on field, shipboard and laboratory experience and aiming for roles that bridge aquatic resource management and marine biotech industry.
The programme runs over five academic courses and structures modules across semesters. Many modules are 6 ECTS each; there are two separate final project stages listed as Trabajo Fin de Grado 1 and 2 (each 12 ECTS). Core subjects by year include:
There is an optional itinerary of 24 ECTS in Marine Biotechnology composed of: I+D en Ciencias Marinas; Biotecnología Marina; Tecnología de los alimentos de origen marino; Bioindicadores.
Mode of delivery is in-person with morning schedules. To reserve a place for the degree you must provide a photocopy of your DNI, supply personal details to university staff, and make a reservation payment (300 c stated for general reservations). The site notes a confirmation of place fee of 500 c in general (exceptions and higher reservation amounts apply for specific degrees).
The double degree prepares graduates for roles where marine resource science and biotechnology overlap: prospecting and producing high-value compounds from marine organisms, aquaculture, and seafood industry applications. The programme highlights employability in oceanographic research, aquaculture operations, biotechnology companies focused on marine-derived products, and coastal resource management.
The published tuition figure on the programme page is 7.380,00 c. The programme description also emphasises extensive curricular and extracurricular practical placement opportunities and internationalisation, which can support employability; prospective students should contact the universitys admissions and financial offices for detailed scholarship and payment-plan information.
