SUBJECTS

Internships

With the internships you will bring your training closer to the professional reality. You will be able to carry out professional internships in various private and public companies, public administrations, technological institutes, consultancies and engineering firms thanks to the legal framework of the educational cooperation agreements signed with them. In some cases, you will even be able to complete your master’s thesis during these internships.

Curricular

They are included in the curriculum in the optional subject. For every 25 hours of internships, one credit is earned up to the maximum allowed by the study plan (the MIB also has 12 credits of mandatory internships).

Extracurricular

These are those that can be carried out on a voluntary basis during the training period and, although they have the same purposes as the curricular internships, they are not part of the curriculum. However, they will be included in the European Diploma Supplement in accordance with the regulations in force. They will have a maximum duration of 40% of the duration of the degree, to ensure the correct development and monitoring of academic activities by the students.

Internships can be carried out both in Spain and abroad, as well as at the University itself under the legal framework of educational cooperation agreements, and 100% of the internships are paid.

Internships are a good complement to theoretical and practical learning, which will allow you to gain experience in the selection process and professional job search, as well as work experience.

The ETSII’s Business Subdirection will give you all the information related to these internships, from the requirements to access, to the documentation to submit or the available internship offers. You can also consult this information on the website of the ETSII’s Subdirección de Empresas de la ETSII – https://www.etsii.upv.es/empresas/presentacion-es.php.

Research and access to Ph.

Upon completion of the master’s degree, you will be prepared to practice as an industrial engineering professional, but, if you wish, you can continue with doctoral studies or pursue other specialized master’s degrees.

Consult the doctoral programs in the area of Industrial Engineering offered by the UPV – https://www.upv.es/entidades/edoctorado/ingenieria-industrial/

Academic exchange / agreements with other universities

It is possible to study for one or two semesters, as well as to complete the TFM, at one of the universities in more than 30 countries – both in Europe and the rest of the world – with which the School has signed academic exchange agreements. In addition, it is possible to obtain a double degree thanks to the agreements signed with some of the best European engineering schools through the TIME network (Top Industrial Managers for Europe).

Master’s Thesis

The Master’s Thesis is the last step of this training. It is an autonomous activity carried out by the student, with the support of one or more tutors. The final result must be an individual work that is defended before a university tribunal, following the current regulations.

In the case of the MUII, qualifying for the regulated profession of industrial engineer, the Order CIN/311/2009 establishes that the TFM will consist of:

“The realization, presentation and defense, once all the credits of the study plan have been obtained, of an original exercise carried out individually before a university tribunal, consisting of an integral Industrial Engineering project of a professional nature in which the competences acquired in the teachings are synthesized.”
