Degree in Naval Radioelectronic Engineering
Competencies are the set of knowledge, skills, and attitudes to be acquired by students throughout the degree, aimed at preparing them for professional activities.
The title of Graduate in NAVAL RADIOELECTRONIC ENGINEERING will allow the exercise of the professional skills to which the current Diploma in Naval Radioelectronics titles give access, these skills are reflected in RD.1837/2000, of November 10, which approves the Regulation of Inspection and Certification of Civil Vessels, as well as Order FOM/3479/2002 of December 27, which regulates the signing and endorsement of documents referred to in the previous RD.
The Title of Graduate in NAVAL RADIOELECTRONIC ENGINEERING, has as its main objective to provide the basic knowledge and techniques that a student should have at his disposal Merchant Navy Radio-Electronic Officer who carries out their professional activity. The Fourth Transitional Provision of Royal Decree 1393/2007 establishes that the current general guidelines for the corresponding degrees, both academic (Diploma in Naval Radioelectronics) and professional (Merchant Navy Radioelectronics Officer), will apply to university degrees linked to regulated professional activities.
Competencies encompass knowledge related to professional activity and that is the result of learning. These competencies are crucial for identifying qualifications. These competencies can be classified as:
– Disciplinary and academic skills, which result directly from university academic training (learning outcomes). These competencies reflect the knowledge acquired and the learning methods used. The academic objectives are divided into two parts:
General: common to the three Degrees of the Nautical, Machinery and Naval Radioelectronics Section (Naval Radioelectronic Engineering, Nautical Engineering and Maritime Transport and Maritime Engineering)
Specific: those specific to the degree profile in Naval Radioelectronic Engineering
– Professional skills, which describe the capabilities and skills a graduate will develop in the workplace. Professional competencies focus on the job to be performed and the field of work.
| 1 | Acquisition, understanding and application of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education and is typically at a level that, while supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects involving knowledge from the forefront of the field of study. |
| 2 | Applying their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and acquiring the skills that are usually demonstrated through the development and defense of arguments and the resolution of problems within their area of study |
| 3 | Ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their area of study) to make judgments that include reflection on relevant social, scientific, technical or ethical issues |
| 4 | Transmission of information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialized and non-specialized audiences |
| 5 | Development of those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy |
