New curriculum
The EIT-BA double degree offers determined students the opportunity to take two separate yet complementary courses over five years in order to acquire extensive knowledge in management and company organisation.
On the one hand, the Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering summarises all branches of technology and engineering: mechanical, electronic and chemical; it forms part of the training required to become an industrial engineer. On the other hand, the Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and Management provides education in economics and business organisation, thereby enabling the student to carry out tasks in managing a company.

It's useful to know
In the EIT-BA double degree, the student will acquire two particular skill sets: 1) Scientific and technological fundamentals covering all fields of engineering in order to design, develop and analyse products and services for various industries (mechanical engineering: vehicles, machines and structures; automatic and electronic engineering: electronic components, automatic systems and robots; chemical engineering: chemical processes and environmental management); and 2) the basics of economics and company management in order to manage a corporate project.
At the same time, you will acquire the scientific and mathematical knowledge for understanding the necessary technical and scientific literature to carry out research and development (R&D&I) in any of these areas, as well as to interpret reports drafted by other specialist engineers and company managers.This multidisciplinary ability will allow you to lead cross-disciplinary working parties and work as a manager in technology companies.
The Master in Industrial Engineering (www.udg.edu/masterengind) is the natural next step in the training of a holder of an engineering degree in industrial technologies. The master's degree allows the graduate to enter the industrial engineer profession which has a 150-year history and is highly valued by national and international companies.

Careers
The student after finishing the double degree will have a wide range of job opportunities thanks to the extensive knowledge gained in engineering, economics and business.The breadth of knowledge acquired in mechanics, structures and control within the Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering, and economics, accounting analysis and financial management within the Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering will provide the student with a multi-disciplinary profile that is highly valued by our country’s industry.
In any case, it is highly recommended to supplement the undergraduate education with the Master in Industrial Engineering.A recent logo of the Catalan Industrial Engineers’ Association was “In everything and for everything”. This logo shows that, with the continuity of the Master in Industrial Engineering, you will be able to work in the key industrial sectors, mainly in the areas of Production and product development.Moreover, with the complementary education in business administration, the student will have many opportunities to enter into the functional posts of companies, besides those involved in production.
Continue studying
The Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering provides direct access to the Master in Industrial Engineering, which is the only official master's degree that authorises the holder to enter the industrial engineer profession.It also gives access to business management masters and technology and science masters, depending on the inclination shown by the student during the double degree course. It the student wishes to continue into research, the Dr in Technology programme is also available.

Calendar and timetables
Through the following links you can access the calendars and timetables that correspond to this bachelor's degree.
The academic calendar marks the beginning and end of classes, non-teaching days, holidays, exam periods, and so on.The administrative calendar marks the periods to make the different formalities administrative.
Placements
All subjects have a practical aspect that carries a lot of weight on the course.You will carry out the practical projects in small groups in laboratories with equipment adapted to current needs.Businesses play a large role at the Polytechnic School and the Faculty of Business and Economic Sciences.As an Engineering in Industrial Technologies / Business Administration student, you will be able to take up work placements from a number of companies.You will be able to choose between over 450 options available each year.
Bachelor's thesis
During the final year, you will complete a bachelor's thesis which will demonstrate the knowledge acquired throughout the double degree course.As two courses are undertaken, you will be able to do one thesis for each course, according to the regulations of each centre or you can do a single thesis incorporating a section for each course which will be assessed under the double degree regulations.
If you opt to do a single thesis, it can be an engineering project on a topic of your choice, which will have to include an extensive economic evaluation, in order to demonstrate the skills gained in the Business Administration course.Or it can be a business-based project on a functional area of your choice, which will have to include an extensive engineering section, in order to demonstrate the skills gained in the Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering.If you wish, you can complete this in a company or research group.
Moreover, the best theses will be awarded prizes.Both the Faculty of Business and Economic Sciences and the Polytechnic School have external bodies that assess the work submitted.The business association that supports the Polytechnic School and the professional college of engineers award prizes to the best bachelor’s theses in industrial technologies engineering every year.Furthermore , the Col·legi d’Economistes de Catalunya and the Col·legi de Censors Jurats de Comptes de Catalunya also award prizes to the best bachelor's theses of the Business Administration course.
Mobility
The Polytechnic School and the Faculty of Economics and Business Studies has links to universities around the world.There are several mobility and exchange programmes that allow students to study or prepare their thesis abroad, and expand their studies in general: Erasmus, Erasmus+, Erasmus Mundus, Socrates, IAESTE, SICUE-Séneca, Balsells scholarships, Josep Maria Ginés i Pous scholarships, etc.
