Quality Objectives

The School adopts the University's Quality Policy and its general Quality Objectives. Within this framework, the School specifies and establishes the Quality Objectives described in the following documentation:

1. Strategic Objectives for Quality of the Center and Degrees (Updated) [Quality Objectives (2025 Review))]

2. Strategic Objectives for Center Quality and Degrees. Academic Year 2024-2025 [Quality Objectives 2024] 

Part of the quality objectives involves carrying out extracurricular activities promoted by the School [Activity summary].

Interest groups

The groups whose interests our IACS protects are the following:

INTERNAL GROUPS

Students

Due to its entry profile, this group includes both students who begin their university years at ETSII, as well as those who seek to complete their training, either by transferring, or by beginning their master's studies. In this sense, the IACS will pay special attention to the following aspects:

• Material and human means for training.
• Quality of the training received, accreditation and homologation of the study plans.
• Extracurricular activities and participation in university life
• Administrative procedures, scholarships and aid
• Facilitate entrepreneurship and incorporation into a professional career

PDI

The School, in collaboration with the University, will seek the maximum guarantees of quality and continuous improvement of the teaching and research staff. To achieve this, it has programs such as Docentia and ongoing training courses for teachers. Likewise, each year actions are carried out within the framework of our own R&D programs, which allow us to improve the research profile of our teachers, increasing the material and financial means and their dedication to research.

PTGAS

The technical, management, and administration and services personnel are the basis of most of the University's procedures and services. So that they can carry out their work, the improvement of their professional quality will be guaranteed, as well as the necessary means to carry out their work. Their participation in the quality commissions will be particularly necessary in those matters that concern the management of laboratories and practices, administrative procedures and the management of scientific services and equipment.

Research Staff and Research Groups

ETSII's research activity covers a high percentage of the University and this group is of great importance for the School, as reflected by the existence of a Research Subdirectorate. This group covers personnel made up of employees specifically hired to carry out research, transfer and innovation tasks, either in research groups, collaborating directly with PDI or in other related structures, such as research centers or research institutes. 

Trade unions

Workers' organizations formed to promote the interests of their members with respect to wages, benefits, and working conditions. They have distribution capacity in the usual information channels and are represented in the University's SIGC with direct representation in the quality commission of the DOCENTIA program and in the joint training tables of the PDI and the PTGAS.

EXTERNAL GROUPS

Potential students and families

Our School strives to deliver our training offer through educational fairs (AULA), training sessions, open days, presence in secondary education centers, etc. There is information both on the website of each title, and on the URJC orientation website 

Alumni

Our School maintains a relationship with already graduated students, through social networks and by collecting annual information through surveys. This information is taken into account when modifying and developing study plans. This information is one of the bases for improving degrees, as well as for adapting the training offer in postgraduate programs.

Companies and Public Institutions

Companies and public institutions are the destination of our graduates and as such, they are part of the organization of our teaching, through external internship programs and the associated PDI, but also in the creation of new study programs and the adaptation from training plans to current work reality. ETSII and the University promote the important role of the PDI in the transfer of technology and scientific knowledge to companies, as well as the support and guidance of our students for entrepreneurship and the creation of emerging companies.

Society

Our role in society as a School motivates our teaching, scientific and cultural work. Based on this service, the School extends its ordinary activity with active participation in the social and cultural life of the Community and its closest environment (Town Halls), being part and organizer of events such as Science Week, or the day of Pi.

URJC

Our center extends and adapts the internal quality assurance system of the King Juan Carlos University, which is aimed at continuous improvement in teaching and promoting a culture of excellence. This system is supported by the evaluation of objective quality indicators, as well as procedures that increase the flow of information and transparency in the results.

• Internal Quality Assurance System at URJC
• Programme Teaching
• Teaching Guides 

ETSII

The School has adopted a series of its own coordination actions, both horizontal and vertical, that allow the extraction and capture of teaching needs, both training and material. These procedures are included in the manual of actions and procedures. Every year, the analysis of all the data collected through the coordination meetings, the survey system (PGRI), as well as the improvement actions agreed upon by each CGCT are included in the annual monitoring report of the degrees and the center. academic course.

• Quality Seals and Recognitions

  The stamp Euro-Inf is a quality seal awarded by the prestigious European association EQANIE. In Spain, this seal is granted by ANECA as an authorized agency, and indicates that the bachelor's or master's degree in computer science has been evaluated and complies with a series of standards contemplated in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) on quality, transparency, relevance, recognition and mobility. This seal ensures international recognition of the quality of our training, certifying that the program's skills training is comparable to that of other EHEA countries, facilitating academic mobility to other institutions and providing added employability value to our graduates.  

  Currently the following grades have seals in force:

  • Degree in Computer Engineering (Since 2020).
  • Degree in Software Engineering (Since 2020).
  • Degree in Computer Engineering (Since 2020).
