Education objectives
The course curriculum achieves these objectives in five main areas of specialization, each one with its own specific objectives:
Robotics and Sensorial Systems
Provides skills in robotics and robotic systems, including sensorial systems, control, power electronics, electrical devices, distributed manufacturing systems, tele-robotics, etc.., as well as aspects of production management.
Micro-electronics and Digital Systems
Provides skills on project definition and design of complete hardware systems for the electronic communication industry (wired and wireless) and home appliances industry. It covers project of analog system (radio-frequency and baseband), digital systems and hybrid systems in CMOS/BiCMOS advanced technologies; embedded systems and software for digital signal processing in real time (MCUs/PLDs/DSPs/FPGAs); wireless communication (layers 1 (physical) and 2 (link)).
Energy and Automation
Provides skills in Production, Transportation and Use of Electrical Energy. More specifically, the students obtain skills in the technologies related to energy and the setting up of requirements, assessment of projects, exploitation environment and design of electrical equipment and electrical installations.
Co-operative business networks
Provides skills on the development and analysis of co-operative business networks including virtual enterprises, virtual organizations, virtual communities, virtual laboratories, distributed manufacturing systems, etc., computer networks and other supporting technologies, governance guidelines, organizational models, as well as design and development of supporting systems.
Telecommunications
Provides skills in Telecommunication networks and services with a great focus on distributed systems and mobility (using both structured networks and ad-hoc networks). It includes signal transmission, embedded systems, image processing, as well as management and sociological topics.

Evaluation rules
The following modes of evaluation are used with regard to academic qualifications:
- Evaluation based solely on an examination or completion of a final project.
- Evaluation based on work done throughout the semester excluding examination or final project. In these courses students can expect to carry out, for example, laboratory activities, mini-tests, tests, individual or group projects, seminar-related activities, any combination of which will be used to determine the final grade.
- Evaluation based obligatorily on an examination or a final project. In these courses there extists a form of evaluation similar to one of the aformentioned activities in paragraph 2 as well as a form of evaluation based on a final exam.
