School for Doctoral Studies and Research.
This School promotes research and doctoral studies at the University through the implementation of the Strategic Research and Doctorate Plan. This comprehensive plan facilitates the management of researchers, lines of research and all associated infrastructures. The School also coordinates all Doctorate Programmes linked to the University’s research plan, in accordance with the Royal Decree 99/2011 of 28 January, which regulates Official Doctoral Studies.
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.
