The Master's in Automotive Engineering is an official degree approved by the Council of Ministers that has been taught since the 2013/14 academic year. It is an evolution of the Master in Technologies and Processes of the Automotive Industry, taught from the academic year 2008/09 to 2012/13.

Current changes in the automotive sector were the precursor of the Master´s Program in Automotive Engineering. This master offers a deep insight in automotive technologies. The aim of the master’s degree is to achieve a profile of a high-qualified technician in the technologies related to this sector. For instance: electricity and electronics, knowledge of ergonomics and the interaction between the users and the vehicle, new materials and processing techniques, comfort, navigation systems, applied control systems, without forgetting the aspects related to propulsion systems, conventional or new (electric, with fuel cell), or the state-of-the-art calculation, design, and experimental tools. The learning methodology is based on projects where the practical work requests planning and organization tasks such as the ones of real industrial project. Students get familiar with the project management, which is compulsory for any engineer.
