The Master in Electrical and Computer Engineering (MEEC) is divided into two areas of specialization: Renewable Energies and Power Systems (ERSP) and Computers and Cyber-Physical Systems (CSC). This Master's degree ensures the acquisition of a specialization of a professional nature, through a high effective laboratory component and the completion of a dissertation/project with companies, thus enhancing the integration of students in the job market. In this way, the Master's degree confers a high degree of versatility in the different areas of specialization and, on the other hand, provides an integrative vision of the problems associated with them, thus guaranteeing an intervention capacity in its different domains.

Grant opportunities

In case of demonstrable economic need, the student of any training (technological specialization course, degree or master's degree) may request support from the IPS Social Action Services.

Every year, the SAS/IPS award non-refundable scholarships, which aim to help finance the expenses inherent in attending higher education for needy students (tuition, accommodation, food, transport or school supplies).
