From next academic year (2020-2021), the Universitat de València will offer double degree in Physics and Chemistry. The Governing Council has approved this extension of the Universitat’s academic offer at the meeting held on Tuesday, November 5th. The topic was presented by the Vice-Principal for Studies and Language Policy, Isabel Vázquez.
The double degree in Physics and Chemistry, for which 20 first places will be offered on its first academic year, consists of 332 credits organised into five academic years. The Universitat de València will be the third to offer this degree, after the University of Santiago de Compostela and the Autonomous University of Barcelona, which have registered cut-off grades of 12.29 and 12.73, respectively.
The degrees of Physics and Chemistry have a long tradition at the Universitat de València, and both stand out at the top of the most prestigious rankings. Specifically, the Nature INDEX 2019 places the two disciplines in second place in Spain. Both degrees are taught at a high level and have been involved in educational innovation projects since the degrees were introduced in 2010.
According to the Dean of Chemistry, Adela Mauri, this double degree will provide students with a “very solid preparation to face the challenges of the world of work in its different aspects: industry, teaching and research”. The Dean of Physics, Jordi Vidal, adds that this new Double Degree will facilitate the incorporation of the student body into the business world “through a powerful dual training”.
