IT professionals enjoy a favorable employment situation, approaching full employment.
The main profiles that identify IT professionals are:
The degree offers the five specialties of Computer Engineering as five itineraries or mentions: Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, Information Technology and Software Engineering, fostering a well-defined and later recognizable curriculum in terms of professional profiles, as opposed to the typical design with an extensive range of elective subjects, which appears more often in a degree without itineraries.
As a consequence of this approach, the elective subjects are more focused on choosing an itinerary than on the arbitrary selection of a set of independent subjects.
To obtain a Degree in Computer Engineering from the University of A Coruña, the student must pass 240 ECTS credits organized as follows:

UDC holds student mobility agreements with universities and other third-level institutions across four continents. Students are offered several opportunities each year to apply to study abroad in one of these centres (for a single term or for a whole year), with the guarantee that all credits obtained will be duly recognised in their academic record upon their return.
For each round of applications, the University publishes the list of exchange options available to students and, where relevant, the specific conditions associated with each. Students may also apply to the University for funding for international work experience placements and internships.
Work experience placements are accredited in the student's academic record and the European diploma supplement. Students are free to decide in which host company or academic institution within the EHEA they wish to carry out their placement. To assist them in their search, the University has created an online noticeboard with jobs postings and other news.
Work-study placements in A Coruña are arranged by the International Relations Office (ORI) of the UDC in collaboration with the international relations coordinators in the student’s home university. The general entry criteria, rights and obligations of students, and admission and acceptance procedures for the programme, are regulated by the UDC Mobility Policy.
