In order to introduce the academic community to the colleges affiliated with the project, the Science 2030 program will implement a series of launch days during the month of August. These activities will be implemented in the College of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, the College of Science, the College of Veterinary Sciences and Animal Resources, and the College of Agricultural Sciences.
In its keenness to create a fertile environment for developing research, development, innovation and entrepreneurship (R+D+i+e) projects, The University of Chile’s Science 2030 program seeks to establish innovation and entrepreneurship capacities within the faculties of science; agricultural engineering; veterinary and livestock sciences; and chemical and pharmaceutical sciences..
To report on the support tools provided by Ciencia 2030, the programme will implement: A series of relaunch days at participating colleges, focusing on students, academics and researchers. Learn about the initiative, the team, and the various services available to the community.
The sessions will consist of a General account of what the program has accomplished up to the conclusion of its first phase.

In this sense, Program Environment Liaison Coordinator Daniel Morales“As the Science 2030 team, we present ourselves as facilitators of innovation and entrepreneurship processes from the sciences developed in the faculties we serve, and therefore, our relevance lies in what our collaborators offer us, whether as participants or as a tool, ally, source of communication or information in relation to the regular channels of our university,” he said.
The dates and locations of the courses are as follows:
- Friday, August 9 from 2:00pm to 4:00pm in the Aula Magna Hall, Faculty of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences.
- Wednesday, August 14 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm at the College of Science.
- For the Faculties of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources Sciences and Agricultural Sciences, the date and location will be announced soon via social networks and the Ciencia 2030 website.
