Tecnun

Tecnun (a neologism from "Technology" and "University of Navarra") is the short name of the School of Engineering of San Sebastián, a campus of the University of Navarra. It aims to contribute to the professional, scientific and human education of prospective engineers. From her inception, the School has striven to strike a balance between teaching, research and service to society, making these activities complementary to each other.

History

The school commenced its academic activities in the spring of 1961, with an initial programme of specialization in Metallurgy. In October that same year courses started leading to the degree in Industrial Engineering and, in October 2000, those leading to the Telecommunications degree. In the present location at the university campus of San Sebastián, in the quarter of Ibaeta, there are the laboratory buildings, inaugurated in 1967, the main teaching building, finished in 1989, and the multi-purpose facility, built in 1996.

At present the School offers five official degrees recognized by the Ministry of Education and Science, both at undergraduate and postgraduate level: Industrial Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Electrical, Electronic and Control Engineering, Industrial Management Engineering and Materials Engineering.

Research tasks at the School are carried out in collaboration with CEIT, a research centre, with which the School shares laboratories and library.
