Degree in Telecommunicatios Engineering (5 yrs)

Telecommunications Engineering aims at scientifically and technically training highly qualified professionals in the field of information technologies and telecommunication. Telecommunications engineers must carry out activities related to transmission, information processing, network planning and management, as well as the design and implementation of computers and systems.

For a competitive advantage in the field of information technologies and telecommunication, the UAX university offers students the possibility of implementing the knowledge acquired in labs and computing rooms, and doing their practical training in a number of companies, making it easier for them to be part of the labour market in the forthcoming future.
