Track 1: Intended for students who have completed the Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Engineering (Profile A according to the Industrial Technical Engineering and Industrial Engineering Directors Conferences document) who want to further enhance their skills related to research, development, and innovation. This is also the preferred track for students who wish to continue with doctoral studies.
Track 2: Students who have completed the Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Engineering (Profile A according to the Industrial Technical Engineering and Industrial Engineering Directors Conferences document) who want to further their skills related to the exercise of the Industrial Engineering profession through internships within companies or centres that are active in the field of Industrial Engineering. Students can do an internship within companies, technology centres, engineering firms, or research laboratories for a total of 16 credit hours.
Track 3: This track allows students who have completed a degree related to engineering and partially comply with the requirements of Spanish Ministerial Order CIN/311/2009, of 9 February (Profile B according to the document approved by the Industrial Technical Engineering and Industrial Engineering Directors Conferences), and students who have completed a bachelor’s degree and who, in order to comply with the requirements of Spanish Ministerial Order CIN/311/2009, of 9 February, must take complementary courses within and beyond the master’s degree (Profile C according to the document approved by the Industrial Technical Engineering and Industrial Engineering Directors Conferences). It is recommended that students take subjects in three specific technologies, with a minimum of 6 ECTS for each of the following: Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial Chemistry, Textile, and Industrial Electronics. Therefore students who need complementary subjects in the master’s degree have to choose elective subjects from the M4 module in case they need to take subjects in Specific Technologies. Students can combine two specialization subjects from Module 4 (both of which are 6 credits) with one from the 4-credit elective module.

To access the Master’s Degree in Industrial Engineering at Ramon Llull University, bridging courses are established based on the student’s academic background, in accordance with the guidelines set by the Conference of Directors of Schools of Industrial Engineering.
Profile A corresponds to graduates in Industrial Technologies Engineering, who are not required to take any bridging courses.
Profile B includes graduates from other engineering degrees within the industrial branch (Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Textile, or Electronic Engineering). These students, provided they meet the specific requirements established, must complete 12 ECTS of bridging courses during the master’s program.
Students with a profile C — such as graduates in Materials Engineering, Industrial Management, Industrial Design, or engineering degrees obtained outside of Europe — must complete 24 ECTS of bridging courses prior to starting the master’s program.
The Admission Committee will evaluate each case individually to determine the required bridging courses.
