Resumen
PAZOS-SANTOS, Isabel F. et al. Biochemistry and Molecular Biology degree: a strategy for contributing to cuban local development. Rev Cub Quim [online]. 2023, vol.35, n.1, pp. 68-87. Epub 17-Ene-2023. ISSN 2224-5421.
The higher education system plays a relevant role in accomplishing the processes of territorial and local development. The University of Havana nationally coordinates the Bachelor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB) degree, and their graduates carry out essential work for their territories of origin. However, most of BMB graduates do not return to their provinces. It is important for the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology career to consider in the concept of sustainability not only the conceptual aspect of this science, but also the economic and social aspects, and the development of initiatives to encourage the commitment of students with their region. This work, from the analysis of the placement and professional development of BBM graduates in scientific institutions and higher education centers and individual interviews with students, was aimed to propose a strategy for motivating the graduates’commitment with their territories, and thus contribute to the local development in the fields of biomedicine and biotechnology in their territories.
