Introduction
The goal of the Bachelor’s Degree in Telematics Engineering is to form professionals specialized in the implementation, design, and development of communication networks and their services and applications in different business sectors related to access to information, the Internet, the leisure and entertainment industry, the domestic sector, education, multimedia services, big data, and augmented reality, among others.
The speed at which technology is evolving and its importance in contemporary society point to the growing demand for expert professionals in telematics, as shown by the high rate of our graduates’ professional placement (100% in recent years).
This Bachelor has a bilingual option, it has been recognized with the best quality seals, like the EUR-ACE’s, and it offers the technological knowledge and professional competence necessary to respond creatively to the current needs of a market that is constantly expanding.
In addition, it has laboratories specialized in telematics networks, services, and applications and offers the possibility of carrying out internships in top companies in the industry.
Studies with a bilingual option
In this degree, the university offers the opportunity to study in English more than half of the subjects of the studies program. Once you have been admitted, you will choose, at the time of enrollment, the language in which you will study by the following conditions:
- In groups in English, all work (classes, drills, exercises, tests, etc.) will be conducted in English.
- During the first year, it must establish an English B2 level, perform a test, and provide one of the supported official certificates or any way determined by the university. In the first weeks of the course will inform students how they can prove their level.
- The courses offered in English are in the studies program.
- In case there are more applications than places available in English, interested persons will be ranked according to their admission grade.
- If you are enrolled in English and exceed at least 50% of the credits offered at the UC3M, in the DS appears a mention of bilingual studies.

Mobility
Exchange programs
The Erasmus program permits UC3M first-degree and post-graduate students to spend one or several terms at one of the European universities with which UC3M has special agreements or take up an Erasmus Placement, a work placement or internship at an EU company. These exchanges are funded with Erasmus Grants which the EU and the Spanish Ministry of Education provide.
The non-European mobility program enables UC3M degree students to study one or several terms in one of the international universities with which the university has special agreements. It also has funding from the Banco Santander and the UC3M.
These places are offered in a public competition and are awarded to students with the best academic record and who have passed the language threshold (English, French, German, etc..) requested by the university of destination.
