Master's degree in Industrial Engineering
This master’s degree, which qualifies graduates to practise the regulated profession of industrial engineer, aims to provide multidisciplinary scientific and technical training based on an overview of industrial engineering combined with specialisation in a particular branch of industry.
At the UPC, the master’s degree in Industrial Engineering and the bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technology Engineering form an integrated programme.

- General requirements
- Academic requirements for admission to master's degrees
- Admission criteria
- English level B2 and Spanish level B2.2 are required (foreign students). The university of origin and the first degree will be considered, particularly the appropriateness of the scientific and technological content of the basic curriculum, the shared industrial engineering module and the specific technology module of the first degree . The academic committee of the master's degree will assign a mark to candidates that is weighted in the following way:
- 50% of the mark reflects the correspondence between the competencies of the first degree and the competencies of the master's degree.
- 40% of the mark reflects the weighted average of the marks on the academic transcript (the marks for the thesis and optional subjects are not included).
- 10% of the mark reflects the candidate's professional experience. - Places
- 250 places in September + 150 in February
- Pre-enrolment
- Pre-enrolment closed (consult the new pre-enrolment periods in the academic calendar).
