GSolarRoof has been linked from its origin to the University and to cooperation in educational programs, our students being a fundamental part in the development of this model.
The Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM), through its Department of Electrical, Electronic, Automatic and Applied Physics Engineering, of the Higher Technical School of Engineering and Industrial Design (ETSIDI), has been part of this project since its inception.
Students from many universities and disciplines have participated in the development of gSolarRoof, and especially, the Masters in Renewable Energies and the Environment (UPM) and the Master in Geographic Information Technologies (UCM).
We can consider that gSolarRoof is a choral and multidisciplinary work where the efforts of students, professors and researchers from multiple institutions in addition to CIEMAT are collected. From here we want to acknowledge their important work and encourage new students to join our team.
The ERMA MsC in Renewable Energies and the Environment
MORE INFORMATION
The ERMA MsC in Renewable Energies and the Environment of the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) is a Master’s Degree in engineering applied to projects and processes. For each of the renewable energies, the energy resource is determined, the optimum components and systems are analysed according to the application and the energy produced, the economic profitability and environmental and legal viability are established.
The academic programme of the ERMA Master’s considers all commercial renewable energies, energy efficiency and environmental methodologies, using the main tools, techniques and software used by companies in the sector. Its teaching staff includes professionals and researchers from the most important companies and national research centres in the sector, where students carry out professional internships.
The technical level of the contents, the experimental developments proposed and the methodological approach of the ERMA Master’s allow graduates to have the capacity to innovate, put into practice, develop and apply advanced solutions in the emerging and multidisciplinary environments of renewable energies.
The Master’s Degree in Geographic Information Technologies (GIT)
MORE INFORMATION
MTIG. The Master’s Degree in Geographic Information Technologies (GIT) at the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM) is aimed at qualifying students for their work as experts in Geographic Information Technologies and/or geographic information experts, both in the world of business and in the world of public administration. It is a Master’s with a professional character, but it also provides the necessary preparation to be able to orientate the student’s future towards research, so that after completing the Master’s it is possible to continue with Doctorate studies. In this sense, since its implementation in the 2010-2011 academic year, CIEMAT has been welcoming students for external internships, some of which have even led to doctoral studies.
The profile of the students, who can access the studies of the GIT Master’s Degree at the UCM, is very varied, with a predominance of graduates with academic training in the study of territory, such as graduates in Geography, in Geography and Territorial Planning and/or Management, in Environmental Sciences, in Geology, in Biology, in Archaeology, in Architecture, in Economic Sciences, in Sociology, in Information Sciences, as well as graduates in Forestry and Environmental Engineering, in Geodesy, Topography and Cartography (or Geomatics), in Geospatial Information Technology Engineering, in Agricultural Engineering, in Agricultural Engineering and Science, in Agro-Environmental Engineering, in Environmental Technology Engineering, etc.
