U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

The programme provides advanced training in two broad areas of Biology and Biomedicine. The study of Evolution gives students an explanatory and integrative vision of Biology. The study of Development addresses the organization of life at multiple levels, from molecules to cells and from genetics to complex systems. Integrating these two areas linking them with other areas of Biology aims to increase the student's understanding of living systems.

The main goal of this Master is the acquisition of knowledge about the environment and environmental changes and its direct consequences in human health and lifestyle. In this context, BHA intends to infer about the interaction Environment Human-Health. The students acquire significant experience in influence of the environment on human health; biochemical and genetic markers associated with diseases; toxic metals as agents of public health and nutrition and health. Graduates can access to research and PhD prog., specialized technicians, environment labs, among others.

This Master conveys a solid background on a field which in recent decades made the most important contributions to the comprehension of the inner most fundamental mechanisms of Life: Molecular Biology and Genetics (MBG). Allied to computational tools, MBG studies the structure and function of genes, the evolution of microorganisms, and the comprehension of disease. Students are trained on current scientific literature, testing hypothesis and, in the 2nd year, will also do research and present their findings.
