General objectives of the program
To achieve individual competence in research:
To carry out original research work that constitutes a new contribution to the area of knowledge in which the Doctoral Thesis is inscribed.
Learn to work according to the scientific method.
Achieve the ability to solve problems in new environments and in multidisciplinary contexts related to Organic Chemistry.
To achieve the ability to communicate orally and in writing the results of the research carried out during the Doctoral Thesis.
Know and become familiar with other lines of research in the field of organic chemistry other than one's own.
To achieve the ability to direct other people.
 
Specific requirements and criteria for admission to the doctoral program and applicant merit rating
Specific requirements

Within the general framework described above, and taking into account the standard admission pathways for doctoral programmes, the Academic Committee for the doctoral programme in Organic Chemistry has determined that candidates must hold one of the following qualifications:

a) A university master's degree from the University of Barcelona in any of the specializations of Chemistry, or in Pharmacy, Biochemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Biomedicine, Physics or Geology.

b) An official university master's degree that is equivalent to those listed above, issued by any Spanish university.

c) A master's degree issued by a higher education institution in the European Higher Education Area, of the same academic level and offering equivalent research training to the master's degrees indicated above, at the discretion of the Academic Committee.

c) A degree issued by a higher education institution outside the European Higher Education Area framework, which does not have to be officially recognized but which proves that the holder has a level of education equivalent to the master's degrees listed in Section a).

e) A bachelor's degree in Pharmacy completed at a Spanish university, a university within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) framework, or at a university outside the EHEA, provided that the quality and quantity of the degree content are comparable to those of an EHEA programme.

Candidate evaluation criteria

The Academic Committee will give preference to candidates who meet the above requirements and satisfy the criteria and scoring system outlined below.

1) The Academic Committee will assess each candidate's curriculum vitae, focusing particularly on whether it provides evidence of sufficient training to begin work on a thesis in one of the programme's research areas. Weighting: 40%.

2) The Committee will also assess the candidate's academic record and merits, focusing particularly on the grade point averages obtained for bachelor's and master's degrees. Weighting: 15 and 20%, respectively.

3) Credit will be given for research papers published in international journals. Weighting: 10%.

4) Credit will be given for English language skills. Ideally, candidates should be able to provide official certification of English language proficiency at level B1 or higher (or a recognized equivalent). If this is not possible, a representative designed by the Academic Committee will assess the candidate's English language skills in a personal interview. Weighting: 10%.

5) Credit will be given for the provision of letters of recommendation from former lecturers or people who have had a professional or academic relationship with the candidate. Letters of recommendation must refer to the candidate's previous training, level of motivation and potential to work as part of a research group. Weighting: 5%.
 
Salidas profesionales
The PhD in Organic Chemistry provides you with the necessary skills to lead R&D&I teams in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, petrochemical, lubricants, cosmetics, etc. industries. The mission of these teams is to develop new chemical and/or biotechnological products or processes. It will also provide you with the right tools to become an expert in intellectual property, patents and regulatory affairs.
The PhD in Organic Chemistry is the gateway to an academic career both at the University and in national and international research centres.
