| General objectives of the program |
- Solid and specific training in aspects related to Electrochemistry so that new PhD students can develop their future professional activity in the industrial sector, in research or in teaching.
- To facilitate the access of doctoral students to collaborations with national and international research centres in the field of Electrochemistry, with the guarantees of basic training and the attainment of knowledge and critical spirit that promote the development of innovative proposals.
- To strengthen and promote technological research in Electrochemistry.
- To promote mobility and interaction between PhD students on the programme and companies active in this area.
- To provide training that covers transversal aspects that facilitate interaction with sectors outside Electrochemistry, fostering synergies. |

| Specific requirements and criteria for admission to the doctoral program and applicant merit rating |
The doctoral programme in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology is open to all candidates in possession of an official master's degree in science, engineering or a related field, as stipulated in RD 99/2011.Ideally, candidates should have a bachelor's degree in science or engineering and a master's degree in a scientific or engineering discipline (including advanced training in electrochemistry). The most suitable course is the university master's degree in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology. In addition, candidates should have sufficient knowledge of English to fully understand the ideas expressed in scientific papers, to communicate fluently with native speakers, and to write clear scientific texts (students who have at least the necessary level of comprehension will be considered).
The number of places offered each year is not definitive. Similarly, there is no set quota for full-time and part-time places; students may select either mode of study according to their personal circumstances and the research they intend to carry out. On no account will admission be refused on the grounds of a candidate's availability for full-time study.
The following applicants are most suitable for this programme:
1. Holders of the university master's degree in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology; holders of the research proficiency certificate from the doctoral programme in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology, governed by Royal Decree 778/1998; candidates who have completed the training period for the doctoral programme in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology, governed by Royal Decree 1393/2007.
2. Holders of a master's degree from a university in the EHEA that is equivalent to the master's degree in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology.
3. Holders of a qualification that grants access to the doctoral programme, in science, engineering or a related field, including at least sixteen credits for methodology and research training or the equivalent (the final project for the master's degree, bachelor's degree or equivalent must have had a specific research focus).
4. Holders of a qualification that grants access to the doctoral programme, in science, engineering or a related field, that is not included in Point 3.
The Academic Committee is responsible for determining which qualifications are included in Points 2, 3 and 4 of these admission regulations.
Admission criteria
a) Qualifications that grant access to the doctoral programme: maximum 5 points. Points are awarded for this section as follows:
1. Holders of the university master's degree in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology or holders of the advanced studies diploma for the doctoral programme in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology, governed by Royal Decree 778/1998.
2. Holders of master's degrees from institutions in the EHEA who have completed training in electrochemistry that is equivalent to the content of the university master's degree in Electrochemistry: Science and Technology: 4.5 points.
3. Holders of a qualification that grants access to the doctoral programme, in science, engineering or a related field, including at least sixteen credits for methodology and research training or the equivalent (the final project for the master's degree, bachelor's degree or equivalent must have had a specific research focus): 3 points.
b) General academic record for the qualification used for the purpose of admission: maximum 2 points.Academic records for bachelor's degrees (maximum 1.6 points) and master's degrees (maximum 0.4 points) will be considered. In both cases, an academic record with an average of 4 points on a scale of 1-4 will receive the maximum score.
c) Grades awarded for subjects related to the content of the doctoral programme: maximum 2 points. The number of credits for each electrochemistry-related subject will be combined and scored, taking into account the grades awarded on a scale of 1-4. The student with the highest score will be given 2 points.
d) Professional experience: maximum 1 point. Candidates are awarded 0.2 points for each year of professional experience related to the field of electrochemistry.
The criteria are public and will be posted on the doctoral programme's official webpage during the pre-enrolment period. If a candidate is not accepted, the Academic Committee will provide a written explanation of its decision.
The Academic Committee may set a specific training programme for students with special educational needs due to a disability, which shall be determined on the basis of a report by the student support services at the student's current university. Adaptation of the curriculum may involve extending the deadlines for meeting academic requirements for thesis presentation and defence, or recommending one or more areas of electrochemistry that could be the subject of the doctoral thesis. |

| Salidas profesionales |
The basic training of a PhD in Electrochemistry. Science and Technology' is sufficiently versatile to continue a postdoctoral research activity and to occupy jobs in companies and technology centres in which electrochemistry is a fundamental tool, both in routine and research. The companies that constitute the source of recruitment for these PhDs are those dedicated to electrochemical technology. However, nowadays, electrochemistry has reached a leading position in energy and environmental issues and, therefore, other companies in a wide variety of sectors are also a major source of recruitment. These are companies dedicated to the preparation of new materials, especially nanotechnological materials, membranes, batteries and other devices for the production and storage of energy, water treatment, coatings, etc.
The Doctor in Electrochemistry is qualified to take on tasks of responsibility wherever he/she works, without ruling out the technical bodies of the administration in which he/she will be able to carry out the functions of his/her professional category, in the laboratory, inspection or management. |
