Module IV: Expansion and Leveling, AN (maximum of 30 ECTS)

This block must be compulsorily completed by itinerary 2 students. It is designed to cover the training gaps that the student has corresponding to common subjects of the industrial branch previously completed in the Degree or in the previous training complements, taking the degree as a reference. GITI of the URJC, and in no case will it exceed 30 ECTS. It will be defined by the Master's Academic Committee based on the training for access to the master's degree. However, for the ESCET degrees, 9 subjects have been defined with which both the previous training complements and the extension and leveling subjects of the specific itinerary for each degree of the School can be configured (GIOI, Industrial Organization Engineering; GIA, Environmental Engineering; GIEne, Energy Engineering; GIMat, Materials Engineering; GIQ, Chemical Engineering)

Module V: Specialty (maximum of 30 ECTS)

In the specialty module, a set of subjects are offered, among which the student must take a maximum of 30 ECTS credits, which will reinforce the acquisition of the skills worked on in the compulsory modules. The offer will be grouped into nine specialized blocks of Industrial Engineering: Mechanical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Energy Sustainability, Environmental Management in Industry, Materials and Manufacturing, Transportation Engineering, Advanced Production, and Electromechanical Systems.

This module will be taken by students but at different lengths. The students of Itinerary 1 will take the maximum (30 ECTS), and for those of Itinerary 2 the number of credits will be equal to the difference between 30 and the number of credits of the Extension Module that they have to take.

In the event that the student takes 18 ECTS within one of the specialty blocks and develops his Master's Thesis of 12 ECTS in a subject from that same block, said specialty will be reflected in his university degree. If a student takes the necessary credits to cover more than one specialty, they may only have a mention in their title of one of them, as defined by the theme of the Final Master's Project that they carry out.

Grouped into the corresponding nine Specialty Blocks considered. 6 pure Specialties are considered, offering 3 subjects of 6 ECTS credits each. They are the following:

• Specialty A: Mechanical Engineering
• Specialty B: Electronic Engineering
• Specialty C: Chemical Engineering
• Specialty D: Energy Sustainability
• Specialty E: Environmental Management in Industry
• Specialty F: Materials and Manufacturing

In addition, 3 Specialties are offered consisting of a combination of subjects from the above:

• Specialty G: Transportation Engineering
• Specialty H: Advanced Production
• Specialty I: Electromechanical Systems

Finally, it is necessary to take into account the close collaboration established between Rey Juan Carlos University and the University of Alcalá with the Campus of International Excellence "Smart Energy". Among the objectives of this collaboration is to integrate the capacities of both university communities in a training, scientific, and professional development offer around Clean Energies and "Smart Cities", which opens a framework of academic collaboration that allows expanding the offer for students of both universities.

In this context, in addition to the specialties offered at the ESCET of the Rey Juan Carlos University, the students of the Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering at the URJC will be able to access the optional subjects that the University of Alcalá offers to the students of its Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering. These subjects are grouped into two specialties:

• Robotics and Perception
• Smart power generation and distribution

In the same way, the students of the Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering at the University of Alcalá will be able to access the optional subjects of the Master's Degree in Industrial Engineering at Rey Juan Carlos University.

To facilitate the teaching of these optional subjects, so that students from both Universities can attend without traveling, you can make use of the twin classrooms for te-le-teaching that exist at both Universities and that have been installed with the help of infrastructures from the Campus of International Excellence "Energy Intelligent". Both classrooms have compatible technologies equipped with streaming systems to be able to record and broadcast classes in real-time. The adaptation and recognition of credits taken by students between both universities will be carried out in accordance with the agreements and regulations in force at both universities.
