Temario del curso
The courses of Lulea University are taught in English, in French at INPL, in German at UdS and in Spanish in the first year at UPC. In the second year at UPC, there are subjects taught in English and other in Spanish, so that it is possible to study the complete second year only in English. The master thesis at UPC can be written in either Spanish or English.
At UPC the subjects offered in materials science and engineering in both masters are practically the same. In the first year, the objective is to give a wide and solid knowledge in Materials Science and Engineering by offering 60 ECTS in subjects, each generally of 5 ECTS, while the second year is addressed to offer specific knowledge on different advanced subjects. About 50 ECTS in the first year are on the following fundamentals part of Materials Science and Engineering:
a) Structure
b) Characterization and Modelling
c) Properties of Materials
d) Technology of Materials
The subjects of the second year are mainly optional and give way to different specialised profiles: professional, research and mix profiles.
Main research areas at UPC in MSE
• Biomechanics and biomaterials
• Mechanical behaviour of metals, ceramics and coatings
