Basic Information

This University considers Architecture as one of the main pillars for the development of new University Projects, mainly due to the multidisciplinary nature that is circumscribed to its teaching approach and that allows it to cover, from the most philosophical and social elements to the most technical and innovative.

External Internships
The External Academic Practices (PAE) are carried out optionally through insertion for at least 150 hours in a professional environment typical of the profession of Architect, in one of the companies with which the master has an agreement, which includes a large number of options among which can be highlighted multiple architecture studios, the Official College of Architects of Madrid, public administrations, etc.
As an alternative to the PAE, the 6 ECTS of the subject "PROFESSION" can be obtained by taking the two optional subjects of 3 ECTS (Architectural Research Workshop and Professional Development Workshop).
The option of External Academic Internships can be considered appropriate for students who have not completed this type of Internship before in their undergraduate studies, nor have they had previous or simultaneous professional practice in a professional space specific to the profession. For the rest of the students, it would be more appropriate to take both subjects; In any case, the choice must be made at the time of registration, and complete a minimum of 6 ECTS from the PROFESSION block.
Mobility programs
University Master's degrees, due to their duration and characteristics, in general do not specifically contemplate the mobility of their students. However, the Rey Juan Carlos University has different mobility programs for both students and University workers (PDI and PAS) and has procedures for collecting and analyzing information on these mobility programs.
