Quality in teaching

Since its creation in 1991, the School has been committed to high quality management and teaching. The EETAC was awarded the Certificate of Quality ISO 9001:2000 which was renewed in 2005. The Catalan Agència per la Qualitat del Sistema Universitari (AQU) granted two distinction awards to the EETAC.[1] In addition the school was awarded the Prize Vicens Vives twice (1996 and 2004) and the Flyer Prize in 2006.[2]

Project-based learning

In 2001 the School opened its master's degree in Telecommunication Engineering, with a curriculum fully based on a project-based learning strategy, with a structure similar to that used by Aalborg University (Denmark). This consists of a two-year, 3000 hour program (1500 hours per year), of which 1800 are devoted to project development. Typically, one semester is formed by two blocks or learning units, each block formed by a multidisciplinary project and one or two courses closely connected with the project. The project is developed by students working in teams of 4-6 students.

Research at the EETAC

Some departments of the university have groups of investigation that develop their activities in the EETAC, fundamentally in the following subjects:

  • Astronomy and Astrophyshics
  • Broadband Networks and Services
  • Control, Monitoring and Communications
  • Distributed Systems Architectures
  • Instrumentation, Sensors and Interfaces
  • Intelligent Communications and Avionics
  • Microgravity and Modelization
  • Microwaves
  • Mobile and Radio Communications
  • Optical Communications
  • Photonics
  • Satellite Systems
  • Security and Networking
  • Wireless Networks

EETAC and the Baix Llobregat Campus

EETAC

The EETAC is part of the Baix Llobregat Campus, a Campus of the Technical University of Catalonia which is located alongside the Mediterranean Technology Park (PMT).

The PMT is a science and technology park that was set up by the Autonomous Government of Catalonia, the Regional Council of Baix Llobregat, the Castelldefels City Council and the Technical University of Catalonia. The PMT aims to create links between educational institutions, research centres, high tech companies and technology-based spin-off companies.
