FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Because this degree combines a solid technical foundation with an applied, business-oriented perspective, preparing students to develop technological solutions that meet real-world needs. Students first learn to build technology and, progressively, also to decide how it should be used. The degree includes modules on information systems, technology strategy, digital transformation, IT governance, business intelligence, project management and technology service management.

  • No. Programming is an important part of the course, but the degree covers much more than that: it also covers AI, data, systems, networks, cloud computing, cybersecurity and project management, and teaches students how to apply this knowledge to the real-world needs of organisations.

  • You’ll work with Windows and Linux and use professional programming and development tools such as Python, Visual Studio, VS Code, React, Vue.js and Arduino.

    You’ll learn to work with data and artificial intelligence using technologies such as TensorFlow, OpenCV, MySQL, MongoDB, Tableau and Power BI, as well as networking and infrastructure tools such as Wireshark, Docker and Kubernetes.

    You’ll also use tools for design, prototyping and project management, such as Figma, GitHub, Jira and Trello, working with technologies commonly used in professional environments.

  • It means that students learn to understand what a business needs and how they can address those needs through technology. As well as being able to develop a solution, they understand its purpose, the problem it solves and how it can add value.

  • Whilst studying for the Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering, we will facilitate your access to the exam leading to the Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals certification.

    • Azure AI Fundamentals: this enables you to achieve the first level on the pathway designed by Microsoft for Artificial Intelligence professionals. It provides an overview of the implementation of the main Artificial Intelligence algorithms on Azure.
  • If you wish to study the Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering , you can do so without having completed a specific sixth-form qualification, but you must meet the entry requirements set out in Article 3 of Royal Decree 412/2014.

    Nevertheless, the recommended entry profile is that of a student with a strong affinity for technology, an outstanding track record in mathematics and a keen interest in problem-solving.

    Ideally, you should have studied a Science and Technology A-level course, paying particular attention to subjects such as Mathematics and, where possible, subjects related to Computer Science, Programming, Computing and Technology in general.

  • The first step is to request information. You can do this via the website, by telephone on 91 555 25 28 or by email: orientacion.universitaria@udit.es.

    The next step is to sit the placement test, the aim of which is to assess the student’s academic abilities, enabling us to identify any areas requiring extra support before the start of the course.

    Once you have taken the test and been notified of your admission to UDIT, please reserve your place to secure your enrolment for the coming academic year. Places are allocated strictly on a first-come, first-served basis.

  • Yes, this degree is officially recognised and is valid in Spain.

    You should be wary of other qualifications advertised on the market as ‘official degrees’ which, in reality, are not. To check whether a qualification is official, you should consultthe RUCT (Register of Universities, Centres and Qualifications)website at , an official body of the Ministry of Universities that oversees academic regulation and the official recognition of university qualifications.

  • In the 2027–2028 academic year, the fee for the first year of the Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering at UDIT is €10,880, covering the place reservation and tuition for 60 ECTS credits. This figure comprises a €2,100 place reservation fee, which guarantees a place on the chosen degree programme, and a €8,280 tuition fee, at €166 per credit. New students also pay €500 for the opening of their student file, a fee payable only in the first year. The tuition fee includes student insurance.

    Tuition fees can be paid in a single instalment — between 1 and 5 September, with a 3 per cent discount — or, for students from Europe, Latin America and Brazil, in ten monthly instalments from September to June, due on the 5th of each month. Students from other regions must pay the full amount in July, before the start of the academic year; from the second year onwards, they may also opt for monthly payments. To reduce the cost, students may consult the current calls for applications for the UDIT scholarships for Academic Excellence, High Academic Achievement, Young Talents and the Trébol Study Grant, as well as discounts for family members, company scholarships applicable to certain degree programmes and the relevant government scholarships. The award and amount of each grant depend on the terms and conditions of the current call for applications.

  • Yes. The degree can be studied entirely in English, as well as in Spanish. This enables students to develop their professional profile in English from the outset and broaden their international career opportunities.

  • This is a Computer Engineering programme with an applied, business-oriented approach, which natively integrates the latest technologies – such as Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity – into each of its modules. As well as acquiring a solid technical foundation, students learn to understand real-world business problems, work on projects and apply technology across different sectors.

  • This degree programme starts from scratch, so it is not necessary to have completed a specific type of sixth-form qualification.

    However, given the nature of the degree, a Science and Technology A-level is usually recommended, with a particular focus on subjects such as Mathematics and, if possible, having studied subjects related to IT, programming, computing and technology in general.

    Although not essential, previous experience in programming and involvement in personal software development projects are a significant added bonus.

  • All our degree programmes start from scratch, so it is not necessary to have completed a specific type of sixth-form qualification.

    However, given the nature of our degree programmes, it is advisable to have completed a Science and Technology A-level course, with particular emphasis on Mathematics.

    In any case, you must meet at least one of the entry requirements set out in Article 3 of Royal Decree 412/2014:

    For students from the Spanish education system:

    • Pass the University Entrance Examination (EVAU) with a pass mark.
    • Pass a Higher Level Vocational Training Course or FP II.
    • Have completed a Spanish university degree.
    • Pass the University Entrance Examination for those aged 25 and over, for those aged 40 andover , and/or for those aged 45 and over.

    For students from education systems outside Spain:

    • Have completed pre-university education in Member States of the European Union and countries with a reciprocity agreement.
    • Hold the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
    • Have completed pre-university studies in an education system outside the European Union Member States and countries with a reciprocity agreement.
    • Hold a completed foreign university qualification. Admission is granted through the recognition of their qualifications by the Ministry of Education, Vocational Training and Sport.
    • Holders of uncompleted foreign university qualifications. Admission is granted through the transfer of academic records, provided that at least 30 ECTS credits are recognised towards the UDIT degree.
  • UDIT does not require a minimum grade for admission to the Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering. However, due to the specialised nature of this degree programme, prospective students will be required to sit specific entrance examinations set by the university.

  • Of course, as we offer an officially recognised degree, you can apply for all the government grants available for this type of course. What’s more, government grants can be combined with our internal study grants; if you have a good academic record or technology is in your blood, don’t hesitate to apply for all of them.
