Certified and qualified as “Bn” (Very Good) by the National University Evaluation and Certification Committee (CONEAU for its initials in Spanish). Resolution N° 312-CONEAU-2001

Head
Dr. Daniel Alonso

The Major in Basic and Applied Sciences is based on a thorough Doctorate course of study, founded on the development of original projects. Each academic unit supports its own teachers and researchers, and the research work of each future doctor is done within the unit’s infrastructure.

The Doctorate course of study is mainly focused on the students’ personalized and flexible follow-up; students enter an existing research team and develop their suggested working plans along with their directors.

The Doctorate Committee monitors the students’ activities on a regular basis. It is one of the course’s requirements that students take and pass some specialization courses related to their research work.

Together with their directors, students submit the taken courses for the Committee’s consideration, and the Committee assigns credits according to the thematic pertinence criteria, the courses’ academic level and the students’ training.

Students must also demonstrate having completed their specialization courses before submitting and defending their doctoral thesis and no later than the deadline specified in the valid regulations.
