UNLBIO Program is focused on the circular economy model, an economic concept that is related tosustainability. The main goal is to make a responsable use of products, materials and resources (water, energy and biomass), so that they can be on the economic circuit for the longest time posible and therefore the waste production is reduced. In other words, circular economy is not posible if thought outside bioeconomy’s approach.

UNL relies on a wide scientific and technological skills development, spreaded through de different academic units and institutes. That turns the University into an academic leader on this field. The strategy consists on generating impact results, investigation and training, emphasizing experimental research on bio-sciences.
