Joint curricular itinerary for the double degree

  1. Description. A curricular itinerary is proposed to jointly study the Master's Degrees in Industrial Engineering (MII) and in Advanced Design in Mechanical Engineering (MDAIM), based on the complementarity between both degrees.
  2. Purpose. The completion of the itinerary leads to obtaining the two degrees that compose it.
  3. The teaching programming has the following characteristics: As a summary, the following table shows schematically the list of subjects to be taken corresponding to each Master's Degree.
    1. The optional module (30 credits) of the Master of Industrial Engineering will be taken through subjects from the Master in Advanced Design in Mechanical Engineering. This possibility appears as an option in the report of the Master in Industrial Engineering. The specific list of subjects to be taken is the following, from which 6 will be chosen:
      • Biomechanics
      • The Boundary Element Method
      • Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics
      • Materials Engineering
      • Experimental Methods in Mechanical Engineering
      • Advanced Fluid Mechanics
      • Fundamentals and Simulation of Manufacturing Processes
      • Application of Computational Methods to Mechanical Design
      • Dynamics of Multibody Systems
      • Advanced Fracture Mechanics and Fatigue
      • Advanced Materials Mechanics
    2. The subject “Entrepreneurship”, of 3 credits, is common to both master's degrees, so only the subject corresponding to the Master's Degree in Advanced Design in Mechanical Engineering will be taken.
    3. The rest of the mandatory subjects will be taken from the Master in Industrial Engineering.
    4. The rest of the mandatory subjects will be taken from the Master in Advanced Design in Mechanical Engineering.
    5. Additionally, it is necessary to take into account that the Master in Industrial Engineering includes a Leveling Block, composed of subjects intended for all students of the Industrial Engineering program (composed of the Degree in Industrial Technology Engineering plus the Master in Industrial Engineering) acquire the same skills, regardless of the degree with which they access the Master's Degree. These subjects, which are within the optional module of the Master in Industrial Engineering, must be taken, if the Academic Committee of the master deems it necessary, in addition to the 147 credits of the double Master as training complements. They are the following:
      • Rational Mechanics Complements
      • Numerical methods
      • Heat Transmission Complements
      • Manufacturing Technology Complements
      • Electrical Technology Accessories
      • Mathematics applied to Engineering


As a summary, the following table shows schematically the list of subjects to be taken corresponding to each Master's Degree.

Table of Subjects for Double Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering (MII) and Advanced Design in Mechanical Engineering (MDAIM) | ETSI

  1. Number of credits in the itinerary. The total number of credits for the double Master's degree is 147.
  2. Access. As access requirements, it will be required to meet both the access requirements to the MII and those corresponding to the MDAIM, with the respective Academic Committees retaining the powers over the assessment of candidates and the establishment of training complements and leveling subjects to which the reports refer. check. The leveling subjects of the MII will be considered training complements for the double Master's degree, that is, while in the MII they are within the 120 credits of the degree, in the double master's degree they will be taken in addition to the 147 credits of the same.
  3. Recommended entry profile. The double degree itinerary is aimed at students with previous training at degree level in Mechanical Engineering and graduates in Engineering in Industrial Technologies with intensification in Mechanical-Machines, Mechanical-Construction and Materials.
  4. Offer of places. In principle, they intend to offer 10 places for this double itinerary, a number that may be modified in subsequent courses depending on demand.
  5. Teaching organization.
    1. Groups. The MII subjects will be taken jointly with the students who continue the studies of said degree. Likewise, the MDAIM subjects will be taught jointly with the students taking this degree. The schedule of these master's degrees will be defined so that there are no schedule incompatibilities in the double degree.
    2. Academic bodies. Each degree will be managed by its corresponding Academic Commission, which in relation to admission to studies and the creation of the Leveling Block for each student, will act in a coordinated manner.
    3. Timing of teachings. The following tables show the timing of the different subjects, indicating: This table does not show the complementary subjects that the Academic Committee will assign in a personalized way to each student.
      • Green: Subjects to be taken at the MII.
      • Blue: Subjects to be taken at the MDAIM.
      • Red: Common subjects.
