The University Master in Materials Science & Engineering aims to provide a complete, advanced and specialized training in the area of the materials and associated technologies.
The study of this master is designed to bring their students knowledge and competences that allow them to be original for developing and/or applying ideas for solving problems related to design, manufacturing, characterization and in-service performance of materials. Its main objective is preparing its students for generating new knowledge and applying the existing one to solve the high amount of problems that nowadays restrict the economic development and condition the sustainability of the industry.
Thus, the postgraduated students will be ready to find different kinds of job opportunities, as at research centers and at companies related to industrial sectors like automotive (manufacturers as well as service), aerospace, metal-mechanical, bioengineering or energy.

The requirements for access to the Master's programme will be those stipulated in the Royal Decree 822/2021 of 28 September 2021. In addition, students must hold a university degree of Graduate in Engineering, Graduate in Basic Sciences, Engineering, Technical Engineering or Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Sciences or Physical Sciences.
Within this wide variety of degrees, the Master's management will evaluate the suitability of the students' candidatures for admission to the Master, depending on the subjects previously studied and whether these ensure the basic knowledge necessary to be able to study the Master with guarantees of success.
Admission criteria
The weighting of the admission criteria will be carried out taking into account the following criteria:
ADMISSION CRITERIA WIEGHTING Global academic record of university studies for access to the Master's degree 50 points maximum Number of credits in Materials Science and Engineering previously studied by the student and grades obtained in those subjects 35 points maximum Professional/research experience in the field of Materials Science and Engineering 15 points maximum Language requirements
Check the general language requirements required to study a Master’s at UC3M, depending on whether it is in Spanish, English or bilingual.
students with foreign university degrees
Once admitted to the Master’s, students with university degrees issued by a higher education institution belonging to an educational system outside the EHEA, must provide, for enrolment, the diploma, legalized by diplomatic procedures or by means of The Hague Apostille. They must also submit the transcript of records, with the grade point average, duly legalized.
