In 2009, Universidad Europea de Madrid received approval to offer the new Curriculum leading to the Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering. The degree is in full compliance with the requirements of the European Higher Education Area.

The adaptation course to the Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering will give you all the skills legally required to practice the profession of Industrial Mechanical Technology Engineer, and thus bring yourself up to the same standards as the future graduates in Spain and the rest of Europe. It will also grant you access to a Master’s Degree, which will prepare you to practice the profession of Industrial Engineer and offer you access to the highest-ranked positions in the civil service.

This program is aimed at Industrial Mechanical Technology Engineers, with more than 3 months of professional experience.

The course will consist of between 30 and 48 ECTS credits, depending on professional experience, and credits earned from previous degrees will be added.

Can I apply for credit recognition?

Recognition of credits earned in previous courses will be studied personally on a case-by-case basis depending on the candidate's CV.

According to Official Decree 861/2010, published in the BOE (Spanish Official Bulletin) on July 3 2010, up to 36 ECTS credits may be recognized for proven professional experience in the courses required.

In addition, other subjects coursed in a degree program in Industrial Technology Engineering may be validated (1) if the degree requires more than 225 credits (pre-Bologna), and provided that these subjects are analogous to the proposals in the corresponding curriculum at Universidad Europea de Madrid.

(1) Recognition = recognition under the new European Higher Education Area.

(2) English: this subject is a Degree Requirement and may be recognized if it has been taken in a previous degree program. If the subject cannot be recognized, the student must course a minimum of two levels during the program.

Study options and Schedules
Universidad Europea de Madrid has been a pioneer in meeting the needs of professionals by organizing their studies into programs with timetables that are compatible with working hours.

Thus this course will be offered according to a timetable compatible with professional working hours, with campus-based classes on Friday afternoons and Saturdays.

In line with the rigor and quality that characterize Universidad Europea de Madrid, and in accordance with the law, a minimum number of campus-based classes are required at our facilities, which is compatible with the use of active online teaching methodologies that complement the training objectives and acquisition of specific skills.

Each subject (except for English and the Graduation Project) will consist of 52 campus-based teaching hours, in sessions of 4 hours each weekend, for a total of 13 weekends. In addition to these campus-based hours, there will be those required for assessment in a special official announcement period.

The rest of the activities will be carried out by the students, individually or in groups, with the support of the teacher or through the Online Campus.

The subjects will be coursed as follows:
