For:
This programme aims for students to develop scientific and research methodologies under an engineering approach by means of computational modelling tools and the development of new materials, products and devices. They will acquire specific, advanced knowledge on different aspects of the application of technologies in different fields of engineering, such as industrial, energy and biomedical engineering.
The Engineering and Technological Development in Industrial, Biomedical and Computational Applications Programme combine the following pedagogical approaches, all of which are complementary and necessary in the student’s training:
GRADUATE PROFILE:
The ongoing advance of technologies requires the researcher to be able to deal with and master a very broad set of theoretical principles, scientific methods and formal instruments that enable him/her to carry out work dominated by innovation, technological development and research. The current level of education and science in a knowledge-based society requires ever higher qualifications. Companies have increasingly employed R&D&I activities to make themselves more competitive in the marketplace. As a result, there is a need for human resources to be well-trained in research competences in the field of engineering, as well as specialists in their application, enabling the development of new technologies for materials, devices and services.
The Engineering and Technological Development in Industrial, Biomedical and Computational Applications programme prepares future graduates to master transversal training in research skills and specialisation in activities of high technological content in its different lines of research.

This line of research focuses on the acquisition and generation of advanced knowledge in the analysis, modelling, characterisation and design of new materials and devices in the industrial and energy fields. Its scope of activities is as follows:
This line of research aims to define multidisciplinary research in advanced knowledge of biomedical and related applications. Its scope of activities is focused on:
This line of research seeks to integrate multidisciplinary investigation associated with advanced knowledge of Computational Mathematics, Computational Physics, Quantitative Biology in the different applications of the Engineering Programme.
Students who do not need to take Complementary Training at the start of the programme
Candidate must be in possession of a Bachelor’s degree and an official Master’s degree, or an official university degree that is recognised at level 3 of the Spanish Framework of Qualifications for Higher Education in the field of the engineering disciplines covered in the programme (industrial, energy, biomedical and ICT branches), which are as follows: Industrial Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering, Industrial Design and Product Development Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Energy Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Physics Engineering, Mathematical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering or the different related degrees that address the same area of knowledge.
Notwithstanding the above, there are other requirements for alternative profiles that are specified in more detail in the following section.
Other profiles (students who may need to take Complementary Training at the beginning of the Programme to be assessed by the PhD Academic Commission): those students who, fulfilling the entry requirements, do not correspond to the recommended entry profile described above, such as graduates of regulated University Degrees and Masters in other branches of Engineering other than those of the recommended entry profile, such as: Building Engineering and Naval Engineering, or the different related degrees that address the same area of knowledge.
Consult our Requisitos Generales de Acceso y los Criterios Generales de Admisión.
The Academic Commission will evaluate the admission applications so that the students can be duly ranked for final admission to the doctoral program in accordance with the following selection criteria:
1.Academic record of previous studies (average grade of the transcript), which represent 70% of the overall assessment with the following considerations:
a. Undergraduate academic record: up to 50%
b. Master´s degree academic record: up to 20%
2.Curriculum Vitae, which will represent 30% of the overall evaluation. The following will be considered:
a. The type of knowledge acquired by the candidate during his/her previous training (10%).
b. Publications in scientific journals (10%).
c. A B2 level in English accredited by a recognized test or contrasted by the Academic Commission (10%).
Once the documentation submitted has been examined, the Academic Commission may call the applicant to a personal interview with one of its members in order to provide further information and discuss with the candidate the merits provided for the purpose of admission to the PhD program.
The Academic Commission must decide on the admission within the time limit established by CEINDO once it has verified the applicant’s compliance with the access requirements, heard the person in charge of the line of research, which the doctoral student intends to be assigned and examined his/her file and curriculum vitae.
Doctoral studies may be carried out on a part-time basis with prior authorization from the academic commission. According to CEINDO regulations, “Part-time students are those who perform teaching functions or carry out professional or work activities that prevent them from devoting full time to their doctoral studies and those who have circumstances that prevent such dedication”.
Doctoral students who wish to carry out their studies on a part-time basis must apply to the Academic Commission, which will evaluate the alleged circumstances and decide what is appropriate.
Admission criteria and procedures for part-time students will be the same as those for full-time students.
The duration of full-time doctoral studies is three years, starting from the formalisation, after the doctoral student has been admitted to the program, to the submission of the application for the deposit of the doctoral thesis. The student may be granted an extension of one additional year with the prior authorisation of the Academic Commission.
In the case of part-time students, doctoral studies may have a maximum duration of five years from the formalization, after the doctoral student has been admitted to the program, to the submission of the application for the deposit of the doctoral thesis. The student may be granted an extension of two plus one additional year, with the prior authorisation of the Academic Commission.
Part-time students who wish to become full-time students when the circumstances that justified their part-time dedication cease to exist, must make a reasoned request to the corresponding Academic Commission so that, when evaluating the alleged circumstances and the activities carried out up to that moment by the doctoral student, may decide what is appropriate, always following the procedures established by CEINDO.
Admission procedures for students with special educational needs due to disability.
In the case of students with special educational needs springing from disability, the Academic Commission of each program will evaluate, by means of a report prior to their admission, the convenience of introducing curricular adaptations, itineraries or alternative studies that allow the principle of equal opportunities to become effective, without prejudice to the competencies of the Offices and Services for Equality existing in each university.
