General objectives of the program
The aim of the PhD Programme in Biomedicine is to provide multidisciplinary training to university graduates in the field of biomedical research. Within the latter, to achieve an understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for diseases, as well as the search for the best strategies for their treatment and care.
The programme's more specific aims are
•To offer a PhD programme that integrates molecular and cellular knowledge in aspects such as: understanding, prevention and treatment of human diseases.
•To train scientists in the biomedical field to act as a bridge between basic and clinical research.
•To train scientists in the field of university/company interaction (R&D management and development and research foundations).
•To train scientists in the biomedical field who want to work as professors in these areas.
•To facilitate and promote translational research.

Specific requirements and criteria for admission to the doctoral program and applicant merit rating
The Academic Committee will consider the biomedical content of each candidate's master's degree in evaluating their suitability for the doctoral programme. As a general rule, students should hold a master's degree that covers biomedicine or the specific disciplines of immunology, neuroscience, biomedical engineering, bioinformatics, biotechnology, genetics, medical sciences, veterinary sciences, pharmacology, nutrition, physiology and others.

The Academic Committee will select students on the basis of the following scoring system:

1. Academic record for the bachelor's degree or pre-EHEA degree used for admission: maximum 2 points, depending on the grade point average. For each degree, the standard grade point average will be considered.Correction factors will be applied to qualifications issued outside Spain, as provided for in the regulations of the ANECA programme.

2. Academic record for the master's degree (maximum 1 point, depending on the grade point average). For each master's degree, the standard grade point average will be considered. Correction factors will be applied to qualifications issued outside Spain, as provided for in the regulations of the ANECA programme.

3. Possession of a doctoral grant (3 points).

4. Favourable report from a researcher assigned to the degree programme. Credit will be given for the applicant's capacity, aptitude and motivation. The report must state why the researcher is interested in the student's academic profile, in relation to his/her research project (maximum 2 points).

5. Other curricular merits: previous research experience, publications and international placements (maximum 1 point).
 
Salidas profesionales
The title of Doctor in Biomedicine is the university accreditation that certifies that this professional can carry out quality biomedical research independently.
Regardless of the orientation of the biomedical research in which the thesis work has been carried out, the PhD degree is essential for the pursuit of a scientific and academic career. This professional can join Research Centres, Hospitals and Universities.
The PhD degree in Biomedicine is also a plus for those professionals interested in developing their work in the business world; both in R&D departments and in management. Industries such as Pharmaceutical, Biotechnological or Biomedical Engineering companies welcome Doctors in Biomedicine to their staff in order to achieve their business objectives.
