Technical Engineer in Systems Data Processing (1st cycle degree)
Training goals
The studies leading to a technical degree in Systems Data Processing are intended to provide students with a deeper understanding of the components and functions of a computer system, in addition to enabling them to design, plan and implement computer systems in general.
Career opportunities
The Systems Data Processing degree is clearly focused on preparing students for a career in the following technological fields:
IIndustrial computing: specification, design, assembly, debugging and maintenance of computer control systems, and their integration within industrial local area networks; development of software for computerised control of industrial processes.
Computer engineering: specification, design, assembly, debugging and maintenance of computer hardware and peripherals; development of industrial applications based on embedded hardware.
Multimedia: digital graphic design and modelling, webpage design, design of animation and visual effects.
Network and systems administration: network technologies, protocols and devices; installation, configuration, evaluation and administration of open systems; computer system security, and development of software that takes full advantage of the resources offered by the operating system and allows the exchange of information between applications over the web.
Software engineering: learning about the most commonly used notations, techniques, tools and methods in this discipline and how to apply them; implementing software development projects in which activities include gathering requirements, analysis, design, implementation, testing, documentation and software maintenance.
Web technologies and services: installation and administration of web servers; designing websites, as well as operating services and development of web applications.
