- CE1: Achieve a broad and integrated knowledge of virology that encompasses human, animal, plant and prokaryotic viruses, to identify molecular processes shared by large groups of viruses, and to transfer concepts and techniques from one viral system to another.
- CE2: Know how to differentiate viruses according to fundamental features such as structure, host range, infectious cycle, symptoms, pathogenesis or mode of transmission and apply the most appropriate theoretical and experimental analysis tools.
- CE3: To understand the population dynamics of viruses and their evolution, as well as to establish associations between virology and different ecological concepts, such as biodiversity, ecosystem characteristics, or climate change.
- CE4: To identify common patterns shown by virus-host interactions in different systems (animal, plant, bacterial).
- CE5: To understand the molecular, cellular and systemic processes that constitute the host response to a viral infection, in order to correctly interpret observations such as infection symptoms, viral infection cycles, and viral evolution.
- CE6: To identify relevant factors in viral infection processes beyond the virus itself and its host, such as co-infections, the composition of the microbiome and others, and to understand how they condition the outcome of a viral infection.
- CE7: To know major human viruses and the pathologies they cause, as well as the biomedical or epidemiological interventions would be the most appropriate for their treatment and control.
- CE8: To analyze viral diseases from complementary approaches taking into account the structural characteristics of a virus, the target organs, the progression of the infection and the symptomatology.
- CE9: To apply fundamental virology concepts to practical problem solving, including antiviral therapy, prevention, public health, and the biotechnological applications of viruses.
- CE10: To understand the main features that define fundamental and translational research in viruses, as well as the most important communities and institutions in the field of virology (journals, societies, congresses, schools, research centers, etc.) and their functioning (peer review, etc.).
- CE11: To master different methods in virology, their scope of application, their advantages and disadvantages and their complementarity for problem solving, both from a theoretical and practical point of view.
- CE12: Learn how to formulate hypotheses and scientific models related to virology, as well as to design, execute and analyze experiments aimed at contrasting these hypotheses.
- CE13: To develop creative thinking aimed at the search for new applications in virology.
- CE14: To develop critical thinking about the social, economic, ethical or philosophical implications of a given knowledge in virology.
- CE15: Approach the same virological process from different angles, such as mechanistic, evolutionary, biomedical and biotechnological.
- CE16: To analyze scientific evidence in an objective, quantitative and rigorous way, through deductive and constructive reasoning.
- CE17: To communicate scientific results through the elaboration of reports, articles and oral presentations.
