  • Building and civil engineering (0732)

Main focus

; Graduates of this master’s programme will be qualified to practice the profession of Civil Engineer as stipulated in the provisions of Ministerial Order CIN/309/2009 of 9 February (BOE 42, 18 February 2009). They will possess solid scientific and technical training that will enable them to practice their profession in all areas of civil engineering. This training refers to the technical qualifications required to deal with and solve the problems inherent in the conception, design, construction, exploitation, maintenance, and management of hydraulic and transportation infrastructures and their associated building structures. It also includes the implementation of new technologies in construction processes, territorial planning, urban services, transportation, traffic, mobility, and energy resources, all with the lowest environmental impact.

Competences

Students that have completed the second cycle have the following competencies: – Have demonstrated knowledge and understanding that is founded upon a basis or opportunity for originality in developing and/or applying ideas, often within a research context. – Can apply their acquired knowledge and understanding, and problem solving abilities in new or unfamiliar environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their field of study. – Have the ability to integrate knowledge and handle complexity, and formulate judgments with incomplete or limited information, but that include reflecting on social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgments. – Can communicate their conclusions, and the knowledge and rationale underpinning these, to specialist and non-specialist audiences clearly and unambiguously. – Have the learning skills to allow them to continue to study in a manner that may be largely self-directed or autonomous.

Admission information

Access to Master’s Degree programmes is granted to holders of:
A.1. A Spanish official university degree.
A.2. A degree issued by a Higher Education institution from another European Higher Education Area Member State which allows access to Master Degree’s programmes in that State.
A.3. A degree from a non-EHEA education system, upon verification by the Spanish University that the aforementioned degree accredits an equivalent education level to that of a Spanish university degree and allows access to postgraduate programmes in the issuing country.
A.4. A Spanish Bachelor in Advanced Artistic Education.
A.5. Official Spanish university degrees of Diplomado, Arquitecto Técnico, Ingeniero Técnico, Licenciado, Arquitecto, Ingeniero, Graduado or Máster Universitario.

Specific admission requirements

As stipulated in Ministerial Order CIN/309/2009, dated 9 February, which establishes the requirements for the verification of official university degrees that license graduates to practise the profession of Ingeniero de Caminos, Canales y Puertos (Civil Engineering), the conditions of access to the Master’s degree are established as follows:; – Access to this Master’s degree programme is granted to those in possession of the competencies set out in Section 3 of Ministerial Order which establishes the requirements for the verification of official university degrees that license graduates to practise the profession of Ingeniero Técnico de Obras Públicas, and to those whose training is in line with Section 5 of the above mentioned Order.; – Access to the Master’s programme will also be permitted to holders of undergraduate degrees, having passed the basic training module and the module common to the specialisation in question. The degree may not cover a complete set of subjects of the specific technology module, provided that it does account for 48 credits relating to the total sets of subjects offered in that module within an undergraduate degree programme that licenses graduates to practise the profession of Ingeniero Técnico de Obras Públicas, in accordance with the aforementioned Ministerial Order.; – Finally, access to this Master’s degree programme is granted to holders of any other Grado (Bachelor’s Degree), subject to complementary training requirements that may be stipulated in such cases.

General regulations

Grading scale
In the Spanish university system, modules/courses are graded on a scale of 0 to 10 points with the following qualitative equivalence:
0-4,9: «suspenso»; 5-6,9: «aprobado»; 7-8,9: «notable»; 9-10: «sobresaliente». A special mention, «Matrícula de Honor» may be granted to up to 5% of the students in a group provided they have got a «sobresaliente». To pass a module/course is necessary to get at least 5 points.
In cases of recognition of ECTS, professional experience, cultural or sports activities, or student representation no grading will be recorded but, where appropriate, the word «Apto».
