Grado en Ingenieria Agroalimentaria

The Grado en Ingeniería Agroalimentaria at Universidad de Salamanca prepares students to design, direct, and manage agro-livestock production systems and agri-food industries, covering the full value chain “from farm to table”. The degree also provides a multidisciplinary foundation combining basic sciences and engineering, supporting later specialization in areas such as process engineering, plant or animal production, and quality management.

Learning is described as highly experimental and applied, using laboratory practice and field visits, plus the resolution of real engineering problems. The degree is organised as 240 ECTS: basic education (66 ECTS), required subjects (147 ECTS), electives (15 ECTS), and the final degree project (12 ECTS). The program also enables graduates to exercise the regulated profession of Ingeniero Técnico Agrícola.
