The Electrotechnical and Computer Engineering degree (LEEC) was designed to provide the students with a solid scientific and technological basis, in order to give the best response not only to the current demands of the labour market, but also throughout their entire professional life. It is important to highlight in this course, a wide range of career opportunities which translates into high employment rates (about 96%) of our graduates.
Comprising two major areas (Industrial Automation and Energy), the degree aims at delivering first-cycle level professionals prepared to perform duties with scientific accuracy and technological timeliness in the various electricity and electronics related domains. Graduates of this degree acquire varied and versatile skills to conceive, design, plan and implement systems in areas such as control, automation, robotics, energy, machinery, electrical vehicles, electrical installations, domotics, electronics, telecommunications and production and use of electrical power.
Throughout each academic year, extra-class activities are performed, namely seminars, conferences and field trips that greatly contribute to the scientific training of students and their contact with the industrial reality.
The programme guidelines place special emphasis on R&D of applied projects in partnership with companies (Mitsubishi, Compta), business associations (Nersant), business associations (Acitofeba), industrial innovation laboratory (LINE.IPT) and research institutions (IT - Institute of Telecommunications, and ISR - Institute for Systems and Robotics) as a strategic motor of economical development, innovation and growth of productive capacity.
