Telematics Engineering

Basic Information

What knowledge will I acquire with this Degree?

Students who choose to take the Degree in Telematics Engineering will begin by studying the fundamentals of Information and Communication Technologies (fundamentals of computer networks, fundamentals of computers, communications systems, signal and data processing, electronics, electromagnetic propagation) , to later specialize in communication protocols in computer networks (with special emphasis on the Internet), design techniques, development and management of systems, services and network applications (and their application to Web technologies in particular and to the Internet in general ), as well as its integration with other telecommunications technologies. This will ensure that the professionals who obtain the degree in Telematics Engineering constitute in the future a necessary basis for the operation of all institutions, either from within them or as part of companies that generate or offer advanced communications and communication services. computing.

Where will I be able to work when I graduate?

Professionals who obtain the Degree in Telematics Engineering will constitute in the future a fundamental base necessary for the functioning of all institutions, either from within them or as part of companies that generate or offer advanced communications and digital content services. . The sectors where a Graduate in Telematics Engineering can find work are really varied, and include the telecommunications and information technology sector, advice and consultancy, banking, finance and insurance, the media, teaching and research, industry or public administration.

In this regard, it is important to point out that practically 100% of current Telecommunication Engineers and Technical Engineers are employed for less than a year after finishing their studies. In a high percentage, this employment occurs in entities closely linked to the contents of the degrees. The number of these graduates employed in Spain is estimated at 40.000, who work mainly in the areas of Teaching, Research and Development, Project Development, Production, Marketing, Services and Management and Administration. The activity they carry out in the indicated sectors generally begins with aspects strongly linked to technology and moves in increasingly shorter periods of time to other aspects more related to the technical and organizational management of products, processes and services, and to commercial aspects. . Various studies carried out in the European context for the coming years (EICTA, Career-Space, AETIC, PAFET) indicate a shortage of professionals in this field.

Is this Degree official according to the regulations required by the European Higher Education Area?

Yes (final verification report is attached), the implementation of the degree will be done progressively, starting the first year in the academic year 2009-10.

External Internships

The External Practices subject is a curricular subject whose main objective is to promote a comprehensive training of the student through the practical application of the knowledge acquired during the Degree, which facilitates direct contact with the professional activity and the opportunity to join the professional world with a minimum of experience. All practices are designed so that the students who participate in them acquire professional experience in real situations and conditions, applying the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are acquired in the training processes throughout the degree. The internships represent a decisive opportunity for the personal development and professional future of the students.

Internships are activities carried out by the student in companies, institutions and organizations; that is, in centers outside the university premises, which aim to enrich and complement your university education, while providing you with a deeper knowledge about the skills you will need once you have graduated.

The External Practices subject will consist of two phases:

Completion of the internship period that offers professional experience related to any of the graduate profiles that are expressed in the Verification Report of the degree.
Elaboration of the memory

Renewal of accreditation

The renewal of the accreditation represents the culmination of the implementation process of the official Bachelor's and Master's degrees registered in the Register of Universities, Centers and Degrees (RUCT). The renewal of the accreditation of official bachelor's and master's degrees is organized in three phases: self-assessment report, external visit and final assessment.

In the first phase, the university describes and assesses the status of the degree with respect to the established criteria and guidelines. The result is the Self-Assessment Report (IA) that is presented. The second and third phases are carried out by a group of evaluators external to the evaluated title.”
