Conferences and short courses

Quite often, visiting professors, researchers, entrepreneurs or other relevant people offer conferences or short courses, also, from time to time, the ETSETB organize interesting activities. All of them very worth for our master students. These seminars are a way to collect these activities and make them count as a part of our students academic curriculum.

Therefore, each of these activities taken by master students, will be registered in the academic office. When a student reaches the number of hours of activities required for each seminar, he or she can recognize them enrolling these seminars as an elective subject. These seminars can only be enrolled once.
