A celebration of tradition and future in beer science
The history of culture and beer technology formation at the University of Alcalá continues to mark milestones with an edition that, for its data and meaning, seems worthy of a special toast. Since its inception in the 60s, this program has been a reference, and now, in its 58th promotion, it keeps alive the passion for beer art and science.
Diversity and experience in a course that enriches from all angles
This Master not only attracts students from different countries such as Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Nicaragua and, of course, Spain. It also reflects the opening of a sector that evolves rapidly. The training, which lasts six intensive months, combines time in classrooms with practices in pilot plants and in leading companies related to the manufacture of beer and malt.
Innovate, update and adapt: the heart of the curriculum
With a flexible structure and in constant review, the program is updated annually to follow the rhythm of a market always in motion. From microbiology and ingredients, to marketing and legal regulations, this formation covers the entire palette necessary to create quality beers and understand the industry in its entire dimension.
