In-company internships are a key part of your training. Gaining experience after learning skills during your degree is the best way to enter the job market. There are two types of internships: curricular (included in your curriculum) and extracurricular (those completed voluntarily).
To take part in curricular internships in companies, you must have passed 50% of the credits and enrolled for the subject before starting the internship. These internships are conducted with monitoring by the company and by the internship professor, as well as intermediate and final assessment reports.
If you want to gain more your work experience before finishing your university training, you can complete extracurricular internships. You may complete an extracurricular internship during any academic year, but remember that internships are complementary to your studies, so the more knowledge you have acquired over the course of your degree programme, the better you will be able to benefit from your internship experience.
As a result of the inclusion of BIM in the curriculum, recruitment of students and graduates in companies that want to introduce this methodology has increased. 100% of the civil engineering students from the last graduating class are now working in the sector.
As a Civil Engineer, you'll be able to work as a consultant or join construction companies in sectors such as infrastructure, renewable energies or urban development and transport planning: sectors that need professionals like you to plan, design and build all kinds of works. You could also develop your career by working with different Public Authorities.

These are just a few examples of the many career paths available to those with a civil engineering degree. The field is constantly evolving, and there are always new and exciting opportunities emerging.
The Degree in Civil Engineering at Universidad Europea lasts for four years and is made up of 240 ECTS. During that time, you will receive a thorough education and be prepared to work not just in Spain, but in the USA as well, as it is aligned with the requirements of the prestigious American ABET accreditation.
You will study at our state-of-the-art campus in Madrid, but also take part in numerous internship and work placements at prestigious companies, gaining the real work skills so that when you graduate, you are ready from day one.
Civil engineering can be a challenging degree because it involves a wide range of technical subjects such as mechanics, structures, materials, hydraulics, and geotechnics. Additionally, it requires the application of these subjects to real-world problems and the development of solutions that are safe, sustainable, and cost-effective.
However, having said that, at Universidad Europea, you will have all the support you’ll need to progress over the four-year programme. You will have at your disposal:
Yes, civil engineers use a significant amount of math in their day-to-day work. Civil engineering involves designing and constructing buildings, roads, bridges, airports, water treatment plants, and other infrastructure systems. To design these structures, civil engineers use mathematical principles such as calculus, geometry, trigonometry, and statistics – all of which is covered within the curriculum of our Degree in Civil Engineering at Universidad Europea.
