The project offers foreign students a full semester<\/strong> (30 ECTS credits) in English<\/strong> to undertake engineering studies in any of the degrees currently being taught at the faculty.<\/p>\n

The proposed structure is as follows:<\/p>\n

\u00bb 12 ECTS<\/strong> corresponding to the student\u2019s final project.<\/p>\n

\u00bb 18 ECTS<\/strong> corresponding to three courses with six ECTS credits each, which\u00a0students choose from amongst six proposed courses, all of which are transversal for the seven bachelor\u2019s degrees taught in industrial engineering. The proposed courses are:<\/p>\n
