OBJECTIVES

Presentation

“If you want a solid knowledge of Biotechnology for Health or Biotechnology for Agro-Industry and to become a scientist working in the fields of health (without being a doctor), pharmaceutical science, health nutrition or bio-industry, this degree is perfect for you!
The Health Sciences bachelor’s degree trains biology students who wish to acquire the basics in the Fundamental Sciences relating to Health (Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Cellular and Molecular Biology, Biophysics, Immunology, Pharmacology, Analytical Biochemistry, Enzymology, etc.), giving them a multi-disciplinary scientific profile, a real asset for laboratories looking for multi-skilled graduates.

It offers a wide range of opportunities for further study and is very relevant to current health issues. The vast majority of students graduating from our bachelor’s degree go on to master’s degrees in Biotechnology, Immunology, Infectiology, Vaccinology, Biodrug, Cancerology, Nutrition and Health, Drug Science, Bioinformatics and Microbiology.”
