Undergraduate Degree in Electronics And Telecommunications Engineering
The cycle of studies aimed towards obtaining a degree in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering is comprised of 6 semesters (3 academic years). Those who successfully obtain 180 ECTS are awarded the title.
The main objective of this degree is to train professionals capable of independently facing the challenges of a demanding and dynamic working market associated with this sector.
Specialists in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering are capable of the analysis, specification, design, industrialization, marketing and use of products supported by information technology. With this in mind, the degree syllabus places emphasis on practical laboratorial experience, propelling design and production capabilities, allied to a solid theoretical training in supporting scientific subjects such as mathematics and physics.
As an area in constant expansion, throughout the course students are prepared and encouraged not only to integrate into different sectors, companies and organizations but also to create their own employment, making the most of the large entrepreneurial support in this area.
