Presentation and competitions
Telecommunications are a backbone of modern societies and, as a consequence, communications technologies constitute one of the most active areas of research in developed countries. Both the Carlos III University of Madrid and the Rey Juan Carlos University opted years ago for the Telecommunications Engineering offer and the creation of Departments with a very solid training of their Doctor Professors in cutting-edge R&D topics in the field of Communications. and Multimedia Processing. Based on the collaboration between the Departments of Signal Theory and Communications of both institutions, the Interuniversity Doctorate Program in Multimedia and Communications was created (coordinated by the Univ. Carlos III of Madrid), adapted to Royal Decree 99/2011 and distinguished with "Mention towards Excellence" by the Ministry of Education (courses 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14).
Multimedia and Communications technologies constitute one of the most important areas in the world of Telecommunications, as they seek to solve problems of broadband transmission, treatment, ubiquitous distribution in communications networks and management of information and multimedia content, aspects increasingly relevant in a knowledge and content-oriented society.
Under this Doctorate, the aim is to prepare professionals with a high degree of scientific and technical training, capable of contributing to and leading innovation and development projects, as well as the training of researchers with the capacity to join competitive research teams, within the various disciplines taught in the program.

Access and admission
Program Admission Criteria
Student profile
Students are expected to have a good background in mathematics and statistics, as well as extensive knowledge in the field of Signal Processing and Communications, especially in the lines of research related to their Thesis topic. Also, a good level of English is recommended.
access requirements
In accordance with current regulations, in general it will be necessary to be in possession of a Bachelor's degree or equivalent in the field of Telecommunications Engineering and a Master's degree or 60 ECTS of postgraduate training in Signal Processing and Communications.
Exceptionally, Graduates from fields other than the one indicated in the previous paragraph may be admitted, provided that they accredit postgraduate training in Signal Processing and Communications, after assessment by the Academic Committee of the adequacy of their profile.
Admission criteria
The selection will be based on the merit and ability of the applicants, for which purpose the following criteria will be taken into account:
- 1. Academic record
- 2. Curriculum vitae of the candidate
- 3. Level of knowledge of English
- 4. Letters of introduction from professors who are aware of the applicant's ability and competence
- 5. Commitment to supervise the doctoral thesis by a doctor from the program or from the participating universities and a brief description of the thesis project
Admission criteria and procedures for part-time students will be the same as those contemplated for full-time students.

General information collection plan
Within the quality assurance system of the Rey Juan Carlos University, the following surveys are being carried out as part of the general information collection plan:
- Survey addressed to new students of doctoral programs
- Doctoral student satisfaction survey with the doctoral program
- Satisfaction surveys of the doctoral student with the training activities of the doctoral program
- Assessment surveys of supervisors and thesis tutors
- Faculty satisfaction survey with the doctoral program
Survey results:
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.”
