The School of Science maintains an exchange program for students and professors of Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry and Human Nutrition and Dietetics, with many European universities through the SOCRATES program of the European Union.

Our students have an interest in understanding life, with capacities of observation, analysis, synthesis and teamwork.
For this reason, approximately 50% of undergraduate credits correspond to work performed by students in laboratories, seminars or field work.

The School of Science, in collaboration with the University Business Foundation, maintains close relations with industry. The programs of study allow students to obtain academic credit (as electives) for performance of internships with businesses. During the past academic year the School of Science maintained more than 100 internship agreements with various businesses in the areas of food service, environmental management, clinical analysis laboratories, oenology, microbiology and genetics, forestry, treatment of wastewater and industrial waste, elimination of plagues, aquaculture, marine museums, natural parks, dairies, meat producers, jam manufacturers, chemical laboratories, hospitals, restoration businesses, etc.....
