Academic Fees
CEU Merit Program ScholarshipsWelcome to the scholarship with no fine print. The CEU Merit Program offers over 100 scholarships a year with a 75% or 100% reduction in the total tuition fee. This is the only scholarship program where you’ll know if you’ve been awarded before enrollment. If not, you’ll still have time to choose another university. That’s how clear it is—no fine print. 
Collaboration ScholarshipsHow would you feel about getting paid to collaborate in different areas of the University? And what if you collaborate in an area directly related to your professional future? That’s what CEU collaboration scholarships are about for domestic and international students. The success of these calls year after year shows they are the ideal combination of support and learning. |
Our Double Degrees
Two Degrees at Your Own Pace and with Total FlexibilityBy finishing a double degree, you earn two official university degrees, not a single combined title. CEU’s double degrees offer personalized paths, guiding you based on your workload, international stays, and credit transfers, so you don’t have to worry about bureaucracy. 
Double Degree, Double Reward, but Not Double PriceThe double degree path grants you both titles, but you won’t pay the full annual cost of two separate programs. Simply put: if one degree costs 100, the double degree costs 130. We can explain the details if you wish. 
No Commutes and No Complex PaperworkYou’ll study both degrees in the same building, avoiding inconvenient travel. You’ll have a single point of contact for your program, so you won’t face complicated academic procedures. Two degrees without administrative hassles. |
A combination of scientific knowledge and patient advice. A fundamental member of the healthcare team with a strong commitment to health and well-being.
Committed students who want to help and make life more comfortable for others. Those who strive to make a difference in people's health.
Practical from day one, allowing you to develop the skills to interact with patients and users in your professional setting.
Not just a pharmacy professional, but someone who makes pharmacy their way of life and passion. Being a pharmacist means standing beside people’s health, not just behind a counter.

The University’s official degree programs are evaluated by the Agència d’Avaluació i Prospectiva (AVAP). The University submits to the Agency, for its review and approval, a dossier containing information about the new program it intends to offer. AVAP sends the University a final report verifying the degree. The next step is obtaining the Implementation Report, issued by the competent regional education authority. This officialization process culminates with the registration of the degree in the Register of Universities, Centers and Degrees (RUCT), following ratification by the Council of Universities. From the start of delivery of the degree, after six and eight years in the case of Bachelor’s degrees (depending on their length), and six years for master’s degrees, the programs undergo an external evaluation to secure renewal of their accreditation. The successful completion of this evaluation, carried out by AVAP, is certified with the Renewal Report. If the degree is modified, AVAP conducts the review and certification process for that modification, issuing an evaluative report that endorses the appropriateness of the proposed changes. |
