Industrial Maintenance

Base Knowledge

At the level of basic sciences and the main technologies in the field of mechanics, electromechanics and electrotechnics.

Teaching Methodologies

In theoretical classes a theoretical exposition of each subject is made.
In the theoretical-practical classes, the theoretical exposition is complemented, with the resolution of theoretical-practical exercises and the presentation of equipment used in maintenance operations.
In the laboratory component, laboratory analyzes are carried out to illustrate practical applications and specialized practical work is carried out.
