The
courses of study leading to Licenciado, Ingeniero and Arquitecto degrees
consist in first cycle and second cycle studies (long term studies) but a
degree is only awarded when the studies of both cycles have been completed
successfully.
The Ingeniero and Arquitecto degrees are awarded following an
end-of-course project (proyecto fin de carrera). Medical studies last for 6
years but Odontology and Veterinary studies last for five years. These long
term courses are followed at Facultades and Escuelas Técnicas Superiores. The
former offer courses in Humanities and Science and the latter offer courses in
Technology, Engineering and Architecture. There are also second cycle only
studies that lead to the Licenciado or Ingeniero degrees.
