Work in progress - Design of a new european higher education area degree in electronics and control engineering

A group of teachers from the School of Engineering at Universidad Pontificia Comillas is working in the implementation of a new degree in electronics and control engineering coherent with both the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) principles and the Spanish industrial and research environment. The first stage of this work, the conversion of one year of the study program of the existing degree to a EHEA-type framework, analyzing the work load assigned to the students, is reported in this paper.
