General objectives of the program
The aim of the PhD program in Aquaculture is to train researchers in the field of aquaculture with the appropriate skills to develop and lead research and innovation, both in the private sector (improvement in the production of aquatic organisms, production of feed, medicines and vaccines, etc.) and in the public sector, with projects at national and international level in the different aspects related to aquaculture.
 
Specific requirements and criteria for admission to the doctoral program and applicant merit rating
The entry pathways and admission requirements for the doctoral programme in Aquaculture are those established in RD 99/2011 and in the regulations approved by the Autonomous University of Barcelona and the University of Barcelona.
