ALL DOCTORATES

The Research and Doctorate School at Universidad Europea is a pioneering institution with the mission of promoting RDI and its connection with the business world.

Research collaborations

Universidad Europea has established multiple collaboration agreements with different private companies in order to promote university research, the coordinated development of innovative research projects, and the transfer of scientific results to the business world. The University has collaborated with leading companies including ASISA, FRIAT, People Experts, 3M, DKV, Ramem, CT Ingenieros and Telefónica.

Excellence in research

Excellence in research is part of Universidad Europea’s commitment to society. We undertake research with the purpose of generating transferable knowledge that contributes to social progress and development.

Through the Research and Doctorate School, Universidad Europea leads and encourages the participation of professors and students in research projects. This approach empowers professors to incorporate the most up-to-date knowledge and new advances from their own research and the wider scientific community into their teaching.

We aim to achieve excellence by prioritising lines of research that allow us to combine our extensive efforts and by channeling our resources into seeking synergies between research teams. We use the highest standards of scientific rigour and quality to develop applied research that is useful, relevant, visible, multidisciplinary and international.  Finally, we incorporate this research into our teaching so that our students are completely up to date with the most cutting-edge scientific advances in their field.
