Bombardier and the Carlos III University organise the second edition of the Railway Engineering Master’s Degree

After the success of the first edition, 22 students are attending this year to the Second Edition of the Railway Engineering Master’s Degree at the Carlos III University in collaboration with Bombardier Transportation.

The program of the course, led by the Professor of the Carlos III University, Vicente Díaz Lopez, and Alvaro Rengifo, President of Bombardier Transportation Spain, includes internships in companies of the sector for the students.

A staff of mixed teachers will impart the degree. Twelve of them belong to Bombardier and will teach the courses of basis, signalling and traction, safety and maintenance.

90% of the students who completed the master’s degree last year -50% of them unemployed at the beginning of the course- found work in the railway sector. And twelve of them are working directly or indirectly in Bombardier Transportation.

The Master’s Degree, which has 60 credits, meets the need of professionals for an increasingly demanding and specialized market, and is taught on the campus of the Carlos III University in Leganés, Madrid.
