BA/BS in Obstetricia

Midwifery (Obstetricia) at UDD is a ten-semester undergraduate programme leading to the professional title of Matrón/Matrona and the degree of Licenciado en Obstetricia. It is taught in Santiago within the Faculty of Medicine Clínica Alemana. The curriculum blends traditional areas of obstetrics, gynaecology and neonatology with emerging ones such as assisted reproduction, pelvic floor care, ultrasonography and clinical sexology. Clinical simulation is central, and contact with real patients grows progressively from the second year. Students can earn professional certifications, and an international network links the programme to Spain and Peru. The 2027 direct admission round is open, and the programme page links to the admission weightings, scholarships and curriculum map. Students apply through the university's standard PAES-based process. Fee amounts are not stated on the programme page, so applicants should check the published fee schedule or ask the admissions office before enrolling. Universidad del Desarrollo is a private Chilean university that presents itself as accredited at the excellence level.
