Subjects in English - Spring Semester Timetable
This is our regular offer in English. Students can combine different modules according to their interests (notice that there may be timetable overlaps).
In this subject the basic principles of strength of materials and mechanisms are studied. On one hand, strength of materials studies the loads that a structural system supports, in order to check the correct behavior on the strain and possible fractures in that structure. On the other hand, mechanisms are basic for the correct work of machines, that transmit forces and movement, that is, power (e.g. the engine of a car) to the link consuming that power (e.g. the wheels in the car).
This subject provides detailed content about how production and services are managed in a company. A hierarchical approach, at three levels, is introduced : strategic, tactical and operational. Specifically, this subject will address the study and application of demand forecasting techniques, generation of aggregate plans, master and materials plans, as well as capacity plans and production programs.
The engineers of industrial area must acquire, among others, the ability to use automation techniques and control of industrial processes that allow them to properly perform the functions of operation and maintenance of automated facilities and the proposal of solutions for the automation and control of small and medium installations.
One of competences of the Industrial Technology graduates is to esign and analyze thermal and hydraulic machines and heat exchange systems. For this reason, this subject studies methods for heat exchange system calculations, presents different models to analyze in terms of thermodynamics both rotating and positive reciprocating thermal machines and develops different constructive aspects of these machines.
One of the main tasks of graduates in Computing Engineering is the development of tools or software solutions. If the life cycle of a software system development process is analysed, the first step will always be the definition of what this system /tool is supposed to be; those who better know what they want are the system stakeholders, those who are affected by the prospective system. In this subject, students will gain the needed competences for the definition and modelling of a system in an organized and systematic way, as well as the techniques for gathering the required information from the stakeholders.
The aim of this subject is that students learn to successfully accomplish, in a productive and high quality manner, a software development process, encompassing all the development phases (software requirements, design, tests, deployment and maintenance), applying an agile methodology and using the set of support tools which help them in code generation, version and error control, documentation, tests and quality assurance.
The main contribution of this subject is in problem solving and application design according to given requirements and applying the specified criteria of effectiveness, efficiency cost and benefit. In particular, the course on Intelligent Systems places especial emphasis on solving difficult problems, many of them NP-complete, by means of designing and using heuristics for artificial intelligence algorithms, and by developing knowledge based systems.
Any graduate in Information and Communication Technology should be prepared to design and develop software applications. Many of them are interactive, intended to establish a dialog with the user. In order to ensure that the application adapts to user needs, it is mandatory for the designer to be familiar with human computer interaction issues. This course contributes to the graduate profile by providing the tools to develop computer applications that adapt to the characteristics and limitations of the users. In addition to the above, it is more and more common for these applications to include text and images, but also audio, video and animations. These multimedia applications put forward specific challenges, such as data compression and synchronization.
Professionals in this field can develop projects related to:
Design Laboratory II: User Centered Design
This subject studies methods for heat exchange system calculations, presents different models to analyze in terms of thermodynamics both rotating and positive reciprocating thermal machines and develops different constructive aspects of these machines.
The graduates in Industrial Design Engineering must be able to conceptualize, design and prototype smart connected products that feature more advanced characteristics than their traditional equivalent versions. The graduate in Industrial Design Engineering must carry out these activities taking into consideration additional aspects such as user experience, business potential and target market, or production cost, in order to achieve optimal smart product design. Consequently, during this course the student will explore related concepts and will develop experimental activities for acquiring this competence.
This subject provides the graduate in Industrial Design Engineering with an introduction to the new Design paradigm, showing how to work through this new scenario. In order to achieve this, methodologies are applied, methods are studied and activities are carried out in this subject, which will enable the design of both experiences and services.
This course combines open source and/or commercially available software with rapid prototyping equipment such as laser cutter, 3D printers, vinyl cutter and milling machines. Students will fabricate different assignments during the semester learning how to do the fabrication on their own and sharing the experience with others. In this concept, students will "create rather than consume technology" while "locally design and fabricate solutions" removing barriers such as access to equipment, access to expertise or even access to knowhow.
Design Laboratory III: Services and Experience Design

Digital Fabrication Technologies
Student's education in the business world needs to incorporate the ethical dimension that affects both the individual in their professional performance and the company as an organization. For this purpose it is important for the student to understand the major ethical systems that have marked human thought and are still applicable in our culture. Also required is a deep study of the ethical dimensions of the company's activity, thus enabling the student to analyze issues incorporating justice as an unavoidable critical instance.
Project and process management are basic requirements in the daily job of an engineer. Process management enables the efficient operation of the daily activity of an organization. Project management, as a discipline, requires an established organization and connection of work sequences. The most common techniques and tools are introduced in this subject.
Process and Project Management
Innovation is a key element in any successful company. Although the skills to foresee improving opportunities can rest on any employees abilities, usually this task lies on the shoulders of its R&D engineers. By having deep knowledge in the company product technologies, engineers create and engender new ideas which increase business opportunities.
Entrepreneurship is the ability to bring these innovative ideas into new real successful products, by means of deeply assessing multidisciplinary aspects surrounding the new idea, well before becoming a real product. Furthermore, it is an inevitable step for any successful product in the market. This competence helps innovating and having great ideas while teaches keeping the feet on the ground and be realistic.
Technological Innovation and Entrepreneurship (6 ECTS) Bachelor´s Degree
Technological Innovation and Entrepreneurship (6 ECTS) Master´s Degree
The project gives the student the opportunity to consolidate previously acquired skills and knowledge and to demonstrate their ability to acquire new knowledge in solving a problem.
It is also important for developing the ability to communicate ideas effectively. Planning and organisation of time is essential since the project can be a substantial part of the semester workload.
